I am an inventor with a few U.S. and Canadian patents mostly in the automotive field.

The project I have been working since 1996 covers a five-seater EV concept I have designed to compete with GM's EV-1. It has several advantages in size, seating capacity, maneuverability not to mention the capability of exchange battery packs on an automated car-wash type swapping station (part of the project) and keep on running.

I also developed novel accessories to be connected to a dedicated highway lane to allow the the vehicle to run non-stop from coast-to-coast, while charging their batteries on the way. Should these lanes be energized by solar/wind power we would have a pollution free transportation system

As time passed by I have conceived other segment of vehicles ranging from a highway-legal scooter to large trucks, buses, military combat vehicles, etc. all with the same freedom of operation of the original vehicle (which my sun baptized "Pac-Man") plus capability of turning around its own vertical axis (zero turning radius) and compatibility of level of collision.

Other novel features of my concepts are progressive ratio steering and self-adjusting independent suspension systems, which in my view, could eliminate the need of shock absorbers as well as the effects of unsprung weight on vehicles with hub motors, plus improve riding comfort.

This project was considered technically viable by a panel of DOE's FreedomCAR in Washington.
