Very impressive, the low speed control has a lot of good applications for modeling.

This is very interesting. I am going to follow up. I think that they are using a similar technology at Miniatur Wunderland for the Monaco F1 race track.

Just ran across a fun Tgauge  layout using these linear motors.
