Overview
What Is MOTOTEC?
With a generous donation from Transurban, VTTI has developed the Motorcycle Technology Evaluation Challenge (MOTOTEC). This program will test and evaluate promising motorcycle innovations developed by participating vendors to expedite the deployment of technology on our roadways.
How Does It Work?
Vendors with market or near-market ready motorcycle technologies will present their innovations and products to a steering committee of diverse stakeholders in the motorcycle industry. This steering committee will then evaluate these innovative solutions and ultimately select a final candidate to undergo further studying.
Why Become a Part of the Challenge?
This challenge will provide participants the opportunity to present their technologies and/or solutions at no cost. In addition, the selected vendor will receive access to a well-established network of prominent committee members who help to shape the motorcycle industry. Vendors may also receive access to the research capabilities and network of the largest group of driving safety researchers in the world. As a test case, researchers will assess the vendor’s technology who will then provide valuable insight to the efficacy of the vendor’s product. As such, participation in the study provides the vendor with an opportunity to work directly with these researchers on a trial basis.
