Michelins airless tire technology has an interesting journey from patent to practical use. Initially showcased on an iBOT wheelchair and a Segway concept vehicle, the patented innovation found its commercial footing in 2012 with skid-steer loaders. In industries where a puncture can halt operations, eliminating that risk offers real economic value. A compelling example of how patent-protected engineering can find its greatest impact in unexpected applications.
