A ground movement system for a land transport vehicle (2) capable of levitating, the vehicle having a plurality of wheels including at least one actuated wheel (3), a drive device (6) for driving the actuated wheel and/or a brake (8) for braking the actuated wheel (3), a vertical positioning actuator (9) arranged to move the actuated wheel (3) vertically relative to a fuselage of the vehicle (2), and control means arranged to act, during an acceleration stage and/or during a braking stage of the vehicle, to control the vertical positioning actuator (9) as to adjust the vertical position of the actuated wheel in order to increase the load carried by the actuated wheel and thus increase the maximum force that can be transmitted to the ground by the actuated wheel so as to increase the maximum drive and/or braking torque that can be produced by the drive device (6) and/or by the brake (8) without the actuated wheel (3) skidding or slipping.

Condition tracking system for tracking the condition of parts in vehicles

A status tracking system for tracking a suspension system or a physical condition of the parts in a steering system in vehicles. The status tracking system includes a sensor unit connected with the body of the part, and a processor unit configured to connect with the sensor unit in a manner receiving the measurements made by the sensor unit as input. The processor unit is configured to obtain measurement information from the measurements it receives, generate status information by classifying the measurement information according to a reference value in a memory unit, and display the status information on a user interface.
