Traction-X®: The Integrated Drive and Suspension for Next-Generation Two-Wheelers

Traction-X® is a patent-protected wheel, drive and suspension architecture that solves a structural weakness in urban two-wheelers. It addresses a long-standing conflict in scooter design: Customers want a protected footwell, relaxed seating position and compact wheelbase, but these packaging requirements force small wheels and heavy powertrain swingarms. The result is reduced stability, tire grip,

Hybrid Transmission System for Blending Torque and Power Efficiency Between Engines & Final Transmission Shaft

This innovation introduces a Hybrid Transmission System (the System) that goes beyond conventional mild hybrid configurations. While typical setups manage only torque from the internal combustion engine (ICE) and electric machine (EM), this System enables precise control of both torque and RPM, placing the hybrid set consistently near its maximum efficiency range and avoiding high-emission operating zones.

GenSteer™: Fail-Operational Steer-By-Wire without Redundant Electronics

GenSteer is a fail-operational Steer-by-Wire (SbW) system designed to replace conventional orbital and electro-hydraulic steering architectures in Off-Highway vehicles. Traditional systems rely on hydro-mechanical linkages that are robust but limit flexibility, while current Steer-by-Wire implementations require redundant electronic controllers, backup power systems, and complex wiring to achieve fault tolerance.

Futuristic Hybrid Magnetorheological Drum Brake for Two Wheelers

In the present work, a new design of magnetorheological (MR) drum brake for two-wheeler is presented, which can be operated in hybrid mode i.e. compression and shear modes, unlike the conventional one, which only operates in single mode. The presented MR brake has a rotating drum (rotor) and stationary concave plates (stator).

SafeCool VentGuard

The SafeCool VentGuard addresses the deadly problem of extreme cabin overheating in parked vehicles. In hot climates like the Philippines, interiors can reach 60-70°C in under 30 minutes, risking heatstroke deaths (hundreds of children/pets yearly worldwide, many more unreported in tropics), damaging electronics/interiors, and forcing heavy AC use on restart (wasting 20-40% fuel/EV range and adding emissions).

INLARS - Intelligent Lane Release

INLARS is a novel, innovative, and revolutionary concept with no direct competitors; consequently, it has never been tested. When an ambulance needs to respond to an emergency, traffic congestion in major cities often delays rescue efforts or aid to victims. INLARS aims to solve this problem, while also assisting firefighters and police with urgent, time-sensitive operations.
