An Implementation of a Low-cost Automatic Side Stands Retrieval Mechanism to Enhance the Safety of Two-wheeler Riders

Author: Anoop Tiwari, Chandrika Saxena 

Abstract: The automobile has played a significant role in the evolution of the modern world. When it comes to automobiles, the two-wheeler plays a crucial part because it saves the traveler's time by getting them to their destination much faster. We all know that using a side stand carelessly can lead to significant mishaps. As a result, we're developing a device that will automatically retrieve the side stand whenever the motorcycle begins to move.

 A parked motorcycle is supported by the side stand. If the rider forgets to retract the side stands before riding, the unattended stand will interfere with the rider's control during the turn or even cause a major accident. Our goal is to create a mechanism in motorcycles that allows the side stand to automatically retract. This will help to ensure the safety of two-wheeler riders and will save countless lives
