Development Project Overview

AJProTech's development project, Terraglide [https://ajprotech.com/selected-work/iot-products/terraglide], is a vehicle designed for zero-emission personal mobility. The vehicle integrates steer-by-wire joystick control with advanced electric drive. This integration of mechanical and electrical engineering places Terraglide at the forefront of next-generation smart mobility products in 2025.

The latest version, Terraglide 2, brings several key enhancements:

- Fully electric drive system with joystick-based steer-by-wire control-eliminating traditional handlebars for a futuristic riding experience.

- Recumbent trike form factor designed for ergonomic comfort, stability, and improved aerodynamics.

- Custom aluminum chassis, offering a lightweight yet strong structure for better handling and durability.

- Refined suspension system for smoother rides over varied terrain.

- Modular design allows for different battery and power configurations depending on use case-urban commute or long-range travel.

- Advanced display and electronics package developed in-house by AJProTech, including telemetry, battery management, and real-time performance tracking.

- Rapid development timeline. From concept to working prototype in just 9 months, demonstrating AJProTech's excellence in fast-paced IoT hardware product development innovation.

An upgraded version with a new exterior form and expanded features is expected in March 2025, continuing AJProTech's mission to redefine the future of smart personal transportation.

Hardware Development Process for Terraglide

During hardware product development, AJProTech executed precise hardware engineering, integrating the hardware elements - steer-by-wire controls, custom sensors, and the pedal generator - into a cohesive system. Although the project scope did not include standalone firmware development as a service, embedded code was optimized to synchronize sensor data and motor control within the device.

Prototype Service & Prototype Development

At AJProTech, the prototyping phase leveraged rapid 3D modeling, CNC machining, and real-world testing. This prototype development cycle refined chassis strength, suspension dynamics, and the autonomous operation of product function, ensuring the final model met stringent performance benchmarks.
