Dallas-Fort Worth ranked No. 8 for patents out of 250 metros for the week of June 11, 2024. 156 patents granted include: Digital Seat Media's systems and methods for delivering augmented reality content, Electronic Caregiver's remote physical therapy and assessment of patients, HighLevel's systems and methods for building funnel websites using artificial intelligence in a tiered software framework, Linear Labs' multi-tunnel electric machine, SmartDrive Systems' systems and methods for comparing driving performance for simulated driving, and Toyota Motor North America's autonomous seat sanitizing system for a vehicle.
The exclusive Circle T Ranch reception—an annual highlight of the Venture Dallas franchise—drew founders and funders for pivotal connections and conversations. But the headliner unfolded on stage as Anurag Jain, Hill Perot, and Brendan Gaffey strategized the future of the startup and venture ecosystem in North Texas.
With 95 patents issued or pending on its tech, Fort Worth's Linear Labs wants to bring manufacturing back to the U.S., seeing the electrification supply chain as a "national security strategic imperative."
Brad Hunstable launched Linear Labs in 2014 after incubating in the TechFW program. This year his company aims to produce 20,000 electric motors and intelligent drive systems—with twice the torque and half the size and weight of competitors.
The Roaring Twenties-themed virtual event will be a live, cinematic experience complete with a "Speakeasy Party To Go" feature for at-home watch parties. See who could take home an award.
The technological advancement of these motors has "as big of an impact on minimizing global energy consumption as any major battery breakthrough could have," says Linear Labs' VP of Technology.
Four M200 motors in a four-wheeled vehicle "can provide more peak torque than a 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S engine."
Fort Worth's startup community has grown through major startup acquisitions, the launch of two innovation districts, and new startups expanding to the area, Hayden Blackburn says.
A public/private partnership between Fort Worth and Linear Labs could make the city home to the smart electric motor industry. And, Linear Labs could get around $70M for R&D from the city to do so.
"The Honey Badger"—a motor named for its attitude, strength, tenacity, and good looks—is now available to anyone, even those looking to experiment at home. CEO Brad Hunstable says it's the company's way of pushing the limits of ingenuity and paying back the next generation of inventors.
The unique attributes of Linear Labs' Hunstable Electric Turbine sets the Fort Worth company apart from other manufacturers of electric motors dependent upon materials sourced from specific regions.
The newest version of Linear Labs' patented Hunstable Electric Turbine (HET) motor is intended to compete with the industry's top e-scooters. See how the micromobility motor stacks up.
Fort Worth-based Linear Labs has partnered with Abtery, a Nordic startup that aims to "disturb conventional transportation" in fields from marine solutions to electric airplanes.
