Maybe use the stick-on switch theme in this newsletter to have stick-on control panels going to a programmable logic controller in a vehicle. Instead of having a wiring harness, use a single co-ax communication line running from various control points within the vehicle.
By using this concept, many costs could be saved – installation, design, maintenance, wiring harness assembly, and troubleshooting. Instead of having many opportunities for wiring malfunction, there is only one communication cable going from point to point in the vehicle.
An automobile is a machine, yet this proven machine control technology does not seem to be used.
How about a coax cable with +12 volts and ground integral to the construction of the cable – all in one.
Possible Start Building Blocks –
- Existing concepts for industrial machine control, automated trains and trams, etc.
- USPTO Class/Subclasses for "How-To" ideas – 307/141, 700/3
