IAAPS with EM-TECH at TRA2024

The University of Bath and IAAPS Ltd team attended the Transport Research Arena 2024 conference in Dublin in April, as part of a broader presentation of Horizon Europe projects managed by Innovate UK with the EM-TECH project and a 3D printed prototype of the e-gear approach.

Footfall was very high during the first two days, with attendees from various sectors, including e-bikes, CNG-powered freight trains, agricultural vehicles, and high-performance passenger cars. Representatives from all four UK nations, Ireland, and Germany were also present. Consequently, many conversations were with people who found the e-gear interesting.

The 3D-printed prototype and the presentation complemented each other well, effectively explaining the technology and its applications. Despite the increasingly virtual world, a physical model that can be handled still attracts significant attention. The LED display and prototype were effective crowd magnets and were impressive features at the Innovate UK stand.
