This paper reviewed based on five previous journals in order to find out which method is suitable to design a self-balancing bicycle and it will focus on the control system of the structure. There are several ways to design an efficient self-balancing bicycle which are by using control moment gyroscope (CMG), mass balancing, steering control and reaction wheel. Based on previous research, the usage of CMG is the suitable choice since it can produce large amount of torque, it has no ground reaction forces, and the system can be stable even when the bicycle is stationary. Keywords: gyroscope, self-balancing, gyroscope, brakes. 1.Introduction: A battery electric vehicle (BEV) is a vehicle that is powered by electricity stored on the vehicle in a battery through the use of one or more electric motors. “Electric vehicles” include hybrids as well as pure battery electric vehicles. An electric vehicle, also referred to as an electric drive vehicle, uses one or electric motors or traction motors for propulsion. An electric vehicle may be powered through a collector system by electricity from off-vehicle sources, or may be self-contained with a battery or generator to convert fuel to electricity. EVs include road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater vessels. EVs typically charge from conventional power outlets or dedicated charging stations, a process that typically takes hours, but can be done overnight and often gives a charge that is sufficient for normal everyday usage. Electric cars are a currently viable alternative to conventionally gasoline powered cars because they are efficient, significantly less complex, more reliable, environmentally friendly, and cost less to operate, despite what the detractors may say. Most Americans drive less than 40 miles per day so EV’s make perfect sense as second cars. Per census figures, statistically, the average American household owns more than two cars, so it would be logical that the second car be an electric car, for those local commutes, which is where the wear and tear and pollution) on gasoline powered cars is the most severe, before the engine fully warms up. Electric cars produce no tailpipe emissions, reduce our dependency on oil, and are cheaper to operate. Of course, the process of producing the electricity moves the emissions further upstream to the utility company’s smokestack—but even dirty electricity used in electric cars usually reduces our collective carbon footprint. The methods to achieve a self-balanced bicycle are mainly classified into four types. The first type is using a control moment gyroscope (CMG) [1-4].
