Evidence over theatre
A visible process matters only when it reflects the real state of the work.
Development / Building in public
Show the work.
Not a false finish line.
We share progress when there is something useful to show: the question, what changed and what still needs to be proven.
Questions are progress
Early product development is about reducing uncertainty before increasing complexity.
Status has meaning
Research, in progress and planned are used literally—not as launch marketing.
Project 01 / Lean Angle
Current roadmap.
The project is in research. The order and scope of later phases can change as we learn.
Lean Angle project overview- 01In progress
Research
Understanding the rider problem, measurement methods and product feasibility.
Open questionWhich parts of a ride can be measured honestly with a compact device, and which cannot?
What would settle it- A written account of what a steady-state corner hides from each sensor
- A comparison of candidate measurement methods and their failure cases
- A decision on which claims the product will and will not make
- 02Planned
Architecture
Defining the system, sensing approach, power and connectivity requirements.
Open questionWhat is the smallest system that answers the research question without over-building?
What would settle it- A block diagram with the sensing, processing and power budget agreed
- Named trade-offs for each component choice
Waits on Research
- 03Planned
Electronics
Developing and validating the first electronic architecture.
Open questionDoes the chosen architecture behave as expected outside a simulation?
What would settle it- A bench-tested circuit covering the core sensing path
Waits on Architecture
- 04Planned
PCB prototype
Building the first integrated hardware prototype.
Open questionCan the architecture survive being made physical at a usable size?
What would settle it- A populated board that powers up and reports sensor data
Waits on Electronics
- 05Planned
Firmware
Turning raw signals into reliable, structured device data.
Open questionHow much interpretation belongs on the device rather than after the ride?
What would settle it- A recorded session that survives review without hand-cleaning
- A documented sampling and fusion approach
Waits on PCB prototype
- 06Planned
Enclosure
Exploring installation, durability and physical product form.
Open questionWhere can this mount on real motorcycles without changing what it measures?
What would settle it- Mounting studies on more than one bike
- A vibration and weather exposure assessment
Waits on PCB prototype
- 07Planned
Road testing
Comparing measurements with real riding conditions.
Open questionDo the numbers hold up against a known reference on a real road?
What would settle it- Sessions compared against an independent reference
- A written account of where the estimate degrades
Waits on Firmware
- 08Planned
App
Exploring how riders can review sessions, corners and progress.
Open questionWhat does a rider actually want to know after a ride, rather than during one?
What would settle it- Session review tested with riders who did not build it
Waits on Road testing
- 09Planned
Production
Production decisions follow only after the concept has been validated.
Open questionHas the concept earned the cost and commitment of being manufactured?

Research
Research in motion
We are mapping the rider problem, measurement principles and the constraints of a compact device.

Coming laterSystem architecture
The first architecture update will follow when the research direction is sufficiently validated.
