This is the Future for Trailers!
What happens here
Wendell, the inventor of the Hydrastar system, explains the core problem of trailer braking, which often leads to flat-spotting tires due to inadequate or delayed braking responses from standard systems. He details how the Hydrastar system was developed over 10 years, in collaboration with Continental and Movia, to address these issues. The system aims to provide 'lights-out' (instant) brake activation and full ABS capabilities across various conditions, including ice, sudden stops, high-speed stops (75 MPH to 0), swerving, and general panic stops, all while ensuring even tire wear and preventing skids.
Goal: Understand the problem the Hydrastar system solves and its development philosophy.
