Abstract
A system for providing a movement assistance to an electric cycle is provided. The system includes circuitry communicatively coupled to an electronically-actuated driving mechanism and a sensor system of the electric cycle. The circuitry receives sensor information associated with the electric cycle through the sensor system and determines an inclination of the electric cycle with respect to an inclination-reference based on the received sensor information. The circuitry further determines occupancy information associated with a seat of the electric cycle based on the received sensor information. Based on the determined inclination and the determined occupancy information, the circuitry controls the electronically-actuated driving mechanism to drive at least one wheel of the electric cycle.
