1 Track Sphere Steering Drive-by-wire typically removes the mechanical linkages between the controls of a car and the devices that do the work. For the AirShip, the driver does not operate the track spheres and brakes manually, but electronic controls send commands from a central computer, which instructs the vehicle on what to do. The advantage here is that the computer is able to make the track spheres and hubs, regenerative drive, regenerative braking, and air bearings work as one to give the car better handling. This is especially important with bad road conditions in order to give efficient power consumption and to react to emergencies faster than a human driver.

2 Forward/Aft Drive Track Sphere and Hub with Electromagnetic Coordinates Click… Alignment of steering wheel degrees calculates which electromagnets to turn on for all spherical wheel drive. Pull Up (Attract) Levitate (Balance) Push Down (Repel)

3 Right/Left Drive Track Sphere and Hub with Electromagnetic Coordinates Pull Up (Attract) Levitate (Balance) Push Down (Repel) Alignment of steering wheel degrees calculates which electromagnets to turn on for front spherical wheel turns.

4 Lateral Drive Track Sphere and Hub with Electromagnetic Coordinates Pull Up (Attract) Levitate (Balance) Push Down (Repel) Alignment of steering wheel degrees calculates which electromagnets to turn on for lateral parking.

5 360-Degree Turn Track Sphere and Hub with Electromagnetic Coordinates Pull Up (Attract) Levitate (Balance) Push Down (Repel) Alignment of steering wheel degrees calculates which electromagnets to turn on for 360-degree turn.
