Transportation Patent Climate

The weather. Brits can’t help but talk about it. It’s polite chat. Much like the British weather, the patent forecast is highly changeable – it’s handy to check before setting off.

First up, we have a new filing from Saietta on EV drive mounts, a published application from Mercedes on automating driver settings (seat/steering wheel position) based on a driver’s detected arm length and thus estimated height, and advances in airless tyres from Gecko Rubber in their granted patent.
