An accelerator module for an electric vehicle, including a rotor actuator
designed to hold a magnet in one end and to provide a drive interface
with the vehicle at the other end. The accelerator module employs a Hall
Effect chip configured to produce a variable voltage output in proportion
to the relative locations of the magnet and the Hall Effect chip, such
that when the rotor actuator is caused to rotate, the magnet is rotated
across the Hall Effect chip. The Hall Effect chip includes a Hall Effect
sensor, which senses differences in magnetic fields. When the magnet is
passed across the Hall Effect sensor, the magnetic field will change in
proportion to the amount of rotation of the rotor actuator. The variable
voltage produced by the Hall Effect chip may then be translated into
variable acceleration for the vehicle.
