Objective
The goal of my project was to create an electric drive system adaptable to a skateboard, allowing me to control its speed via remote and move around without relying on external force; the aim was to make this kit as inexpensive as possible so that it offered an advantage over buying a ready-made electric skateboard.

> Reference project: Mechanism analysis and interface response.
WHY THIS PROJECT?
The inspiration for this interface comes from the need to bridge complex control systems with intuitive human-machine interaction. Observing how [Insert Reference Concept] handles real-time feedback, I decided to implement a streamlined version that optimizes power control and data visualization.
This design specifically focuses on:
• Minimalist visual feedback.
• Real-time serial communication.
• Ergonomic input mapping.
