New Patent Helps AYRO Secure Protections to Further Company’s Sustainable Roadmap
ROUND ROCK, TX / ACCESSWIRE / October 10, 2023 / AYRO, Inc. (NASDAQ:AYRO) (“AYRO” or the “Company”), a designer and manufacturer of electric, purpose-built delivery vehicles and solutions for micro distribution, micromobility, and last-mile delivery, announces that it has been issued U.S. Patent No. 11752882 from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for technologies associated with vehicle environmental impact reduction and elimination, and in particular, regulating the environmental impact of an electric vehicle by controlling vehicle acceleration.
The patent titled “Systems and Methods for Controlling Vehicle Acceleration to Regulate Environmental Impact,” describes a vehicle designed to adjust its impact on the ground it traverses. This vehicle is equipped with a motor, a braking system and a controller linked to both the motor and the braking system. The controller determines the vehicle’s real-time center of gravity and adjusts the vehicle’s movement based on this data to minimize its impact on the underlying terrain.
“Safeguarding the technology involved in the unique manner the AYRO Vanish traverses varying environments is a core component of our strategic direction,” noted Tom Wittenschlaeger, AYRO CEO. “The unique way our vehicles are able to adjust their impact on the environment, reducing typical landscape destruction, is a key component of our sustainability promise for our low-speed electric vehicles. Additionally, our intent to offer the first “autonomous ready” low-speed electric vehicle platform in the segment depends on our ability to algorithmically control all three axes of force application through our vehicle control unit.”
The patent includes figures and frameworks for the components that make up this low-speed electric vehicle, including methods of movement.
AYRO has been honored with two prominent awards in 2023, the Red Dot Award for Product Design and the Frost and Sullivan North American New Product Innovation Award. Additionally, AYRO has secured multiple design patents and utility patents for the AYRO Vanish and has filed several others, along with numerous foundational patents in the field of sustainability.
