“Ghost Bike”: Three Olin Freshmen Build a $1,000 Open-Source Autonomous Bicycle That Balances Itself

Three first-year engineering students at Olin College of Engineering—Justin Yoon, Pia Swarup, and Aryan Banerjee—have built a remarkable open-source autonomous bicycle dubbed the “Ghost Bike.” Built for under $1,000 using off-the-shelf hardware and 3D-printed components, the bicycle uses a motorized steel reaction wheel and a 200-Hz control loop to make rapid adjustments and maintain balance. A stereo depth camera and LiDAR provide environmental perception for obstacle avoidance and basic autonomous navigation, while an electric motor drives the bicycle and a servo motor controls steering. An STM32 microcontroller integrates the balancing, motor control, power electronics, and autonomous systems. Developed as an Independent Study Research project under Assistant Professor Victoria Preston, the team has released the CAD models, bill of materials, and source code publicly through the Autonomous Self-Balancing Vehicle GitHub Repository, enabling others to replicate, modify, and further develop the platform for two-wheeled robotics research.: https://www.olin.edu/articles/story-how-olin-first-years-built-viral-self-balancing-bicycle-video
