We are researching the viability of implementing smart suspension system of bicycles, specifically mountain bikes. Some of my contributions are:
- Brain storming and coming up with the idea of a smart suspension system
- I also researched on whether there's already an existing technology where I found it is not widely used or adopted by many bicycle companies.
- I am also looking to find how to practically implement such technologies through further research.

- Researched possible companies to propose to and found Aventon fits best as they have e-bikes and mountain bikes that suits the technology
- I researched exciting technology and found KTM has a similar technology on their motorcycles.
- Researching on how to integrate such things to a mountain bike instead
- Looked up the make up of a bicycle and where are the possible places to integrate the system of a bike; possibly the body frame or the handle bar
- Crafted the problem statement

- Did further research on the anatomy of bicycles
- Where would be the best place to integrate this technology? Sensor on near the handlebar.
- What's the best control tool to use for this technology? Solenoids
- Pneumatic vs Hydraulic? Pneumatic
- Bicycle vs E-Bicycle? Ebike due to the need for battery
- Researched on how bicycle suspension works?
25/11/2024 Updated
- Added the "core components of the bicycle",
- Added the "Suspension tuning and configuration",
- Added the proposed solution
- Added the conclusion section of the report
- Researched through google and existing technologies the details of which sensors is needed and how the microprocessors will function
- Researched using Chatgpt and Arduino website the example code needed
- Researched through google search the average power supply each component would require in order to determine how much power it will consume
