How Does It Know? The Secret Tech Behind a Wagon That Reads Your Mind.
Have you ever imagined your electric wagon understanding your every intention like a well-trained hunting dog? You walk, it follows; you stop, it halts. It silently adds power uphill and controls speed steadily downhill, as if it were an extension of your own body—with no tight leash ever needed.
This isn’t magic. This is the reality created by the FlowStride™ smart control algorithm in the Outisan e-Wagon. Today, let’s lift the veil behind this secret technology.
Perception: The Sensing System
To achieve seamless coordination, acute perception comes first. The smart handle and body of the Outisan e-Wagon are equipped with multiple high-precision sensors, forming a “nervous system”that collects and transmits key data 100 times per second.
Intent Sensing (Your Hand):
The bidirectional torque sensor in the handle accurately measures the pull and push forces you apply—even distinguishing between a gentle start and a decisive acceleration. This is the first clue to understanding what you want to do.
Posture Sensing (Wagon Body):
The gyroscope and accelerometer monitor tilt angle, acceleration, and vibration in real time, acting as the wagon’s “eyes” to know whether it’s on flat ground, a slope, or rough terrain.
Power Sensing (Dual Motors):
The motor controller continuously feeds back real-time RPM, torque output, current, temperature and so on, allowing the system to precisely gauge its current operation state.
Decision: A Thinking Co-Pilot
Collecting data is just the first step. The key lies in processing it. At the heart of the FlowStride™ algorithm is a decision-making model running on a dedicated microprocessor.
Instant Understanding
The algorithm fuses intent signal, posture signal, and status signal of motors for millisecond-level analysis. For example, medium pulling force + 15° incline + increasing motor load = the user is pulling the wagon uphill and needs more torque for power assist.
Anticipating Your Next Move
By analyzing trends in force and motion changes, the algorithm can make short-term predictions. For instance, if it detects a rapid and continuous decrease in pulling force, it prepares for smooth deceleration in advance to avoid jerks.
Making the Best Decision
The algorithm's decisions are far from simple power on or brake. It must balance multiple objectives in an instant:
-Responsiveness: Quickly follows every movement intent of the user, avoiding misjudgments.
-Smoothness: Ensures acceleration and deceleration are silky smooth, free from jolts.
-Safety: Prioritizes stability and braking safety in extreme conditions like steep slopes or heavy loads.
-Efficiency: Optimizes motor output to provide the necessary assistance while extending battery life.
Execution: Seamless Response
Once a decision is made, commands are instantly relayed from the control board to the drive board, and ultimately the powerful motors.
When you pull the electric wagon uphill, the algorithm recognizes the sustained pulling force and heavy load, commanding the motors to deliver constant, ample assistive torque. The slope seems to disappear, making the climb feel effortless.
Downhill Safety Control
When you lightly push the handle while going downhill, the algorithm calculates the wagon’s tilt angle and immediately activates HDC (Hill Descent Control). The motors switch to high-torque braking mode, ensuring stable, controlled descent at your pace. In an emergency, if you suddenly release the handle, the motor executes electronic braking instantly, eliminating any risk of runaway.
Adaptive Following
On relatively flat but complex terrain, like grass, dirt, or gravel, it becomes an invisible helper and precisely matches your walking speed. You speed up, it speeds up; you slow down, it slows down. The dragging sensation vanishes entirely. All you do is steering, not pulling.
Evolution: A Partner That Grows Smarter With Use
True intelligence lies in learning. The FlowStride™ algorithm continuously optimizes its control model through anonymized data analysis. While it doesn’t record personal privacy, vast amounts of user scenarios, such as different handle angles, loading habits, and common terrains, help it grow smarter and more adapted to the real world.
This is Outisan’s core secret. It’s not just a motorized wagon—it’s an intelligent robot with perception, thinking, decision-making, and execution capabilities. The FlowStride™ algorithm is its soul, transforming cold machinery into an adventure partner that syncs with your rhythm—much like Jarivs. and Iron Man.
The ultimate purpose of technology is to serve people. When you’re out in the wild with the Outisan e-Wagon, forgetting the technology’s presence and only feeling unprecedented ease and control, that is the highest achievement of the FlowStride™ algorithm.
