    Toward the end of range anxiety : introducing eBikeMaps

    Hi, here are some news about our project: First of all, eBikeMaps it's now 6000 members ! This number grows mostly by word of mouth, which means people like eBikeMaps and talk about it :) Second, we revised our trip planning tool as we considered the following: instead of only predicting how...

    Hi everyone, eBikeMaps keeps evolving and this v1 keeps getting better and better. We completely revised the trip planning interface: - the menu is nice and clear - the map size is maximized - you can hide/show the panels to see more map surface - the graphs are now looking nice and easier to...

    As there is more and more eBikeMaps users, we are now starting to develop community tools. There is now the possibility to discuss with each others. You can also give us your feedback in one click thanks to the new 'Feedback' button present on any pages. Your feedback really matters to us...

    Thanks for the positive feedback :D. We have also recently introduced the possibility to choose unit system (meter or miles) in profile tab as it was suggested at the begining of the thread :wink:.

    We have recently improved the POI management system : -more marker types, -possibility to attach an image, -longer text, -private (only you can see the marker) or public (visible for all). Our goal is to make it easier to find locations to have a break (e.g. for lunch) while charging to allow...

    Editing trips has become more convenient in the eBikeMaps trip planner, thanks to the possibility to drag segments between two points :D .

    Toward the end of range anxiety : introducing eBikeMaps

    To be more precise in your planning, now, you can place unlimited "check points"on your trip simulation (previously limited to 10) 8). We have also introduced a more accurate battery state estimation. It is not enable by default as it is slower. You can click on "Improve Simulation" to access...

    Toward the end of range anxiety : introducing eBikeMaps

    We have now created our company eBikeLabs and thus we should be able to be much more responsive to any request and accelerate the development. There is a lot of new features on eBikeMaps. We have introduced an ebike gallery such that anybody can easily share information about his ebike with...

    Toward the end of range anxiety : introducing eBikeMaps

    We have introduced a better way to model human pedaling power during a ride. For each pedaling level, you can set the maximum pedaling speed. It means that the model considers that you are not pedaling anymore if the ebike is faster than this speed. You can see how the model behaves depending on...

    Efficiency?

    Take care that at low RPM, you can reach motor saturation. In a good system, input electrical power is more limited at low speed than at higher speed to avoid saturation. I think it depends on the system, with a high power battery (low internal resistance) and if you don't reach motor...

    We have now introduced a navigation app :) . You can check it out with your smartphone. Go on Ebike Maps with your smartphone web broswer and log in. You will be automaticaly redirected to the navigation application. It localizes you on the maps (GPS needs to be activated). Then you can access...

    Indeed, speed limitation would be easy to integrate into the simulator but is an expensive information at least if you want to get it from Google. We need more time to work on this problem. In the mean time, that is why it is not working well with high power ebike.

    Toward the end of range anxiety : introducing eBikeMaps

    I have to say that eBikeMaps has been designed and tested with <45km/h ebikes and we need to include some modification for higher speed ebike for more reallistic behaviour. Especially, you need to custom made the ebike profile as default parameters are very innacurate for high power ebikes...

    Now you should have 100 :wink:. However, we need to give a serious thought about how to avoid someone to input random POI... In the meantime, we limit to 10 the number of POI and we can increase to 100 on demand.

    We have added the possibility to click directly on the map and word completion when you type an adress :D. Manage your POI on eBikeMaps.

    Thanks for the feedback. We will add the possibility to click on the map to add POI (probably next week). Here is a video explaining how to use our solver find an accurate friction model based on several known consumptions on a flat road for different cruising speeds. lgfExViZQNM

    We are now working on an ebike profile sharing system :D . Here is one of my speedelec profile. You need to be log in and have less than 3 bikes in your account to add the bike to your list. For each of your bike you have a new blue button "Share my bike". Let us now what you think about this...

    A new feature I am pretty exited about XLcRD5_o8dg Adapt speed option helps the rider to choose appropriate assistance speed to prevent from running out of electrical power. Reducing assistance speed can extend a lot the range :wink:.

    Here is a new video tutoriel to explain how to use consumption and travel time measurement to improve Ebike Maps accuracy 8) . yJkc5CIJtS4 I hope this is going to be useful.

    I bielieve that it is becoming even more realistic with the good cells power density improvment in the last years. One rental service could have e.g. a few 48V10Ah batteries which can deliver up to 40A. Depending on the planned trip, the user could rent between 1 and 4 batteries. This might be...

    Toward the end of range anxiety : introducing eBikeMaps

    Well, here is an introduction video to ebike maps trip simulator. I hope you can understand that it can do much more than a map for ebike rider. You can test it without registering, however, the application need to know more about you and your ebike to provide the best estimate of travel time...

    Are torque simulation controllers less efficient?

    I would say yes for a middle drive system, but for a hub motor, if the motor torque is set constant, the battery power increases with speed (nearly proportional as motor power is motor torque multiply by motor speed and battery power is motor power + losses). With constant torque, the faster you...
