Mobility Design

We design and manufacture Carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) used for the ultra-light body and sub-components of future mobility such as Electric vehicle, Flying car and even spacecraft. Deployable space boom, the rollable wing of personal aerial vehicle (PAV), multi-purpose suspension beam, CFRP suspension arms and innovative auto parts are under investigation.
