Meet LUMOS ONE.
An electric travel trailer in development, built around one idea: the trailer should work with the vehicle pulling it.

The idea
A trailer should do more than follow.
LUMOS ONE is being developed to sense how the trailer is moving and respond when towing gets harder—on grades, under braking, or during a stability event.
Designed for gas, hybrid, and electric tow vehicles
Illustrative target scenario · Not road-test data
The consequence
Towing takes a toll.
The figures below show the development scenario LUMOS is being designed to address.
EV range
Unloaded300 mi
Towing120 mi
With LUMOS200 mi
Gas fuel economy
Unloaded20 mpg
Towing10 mpg
With LUMOS14 mpg
In this scenario, LUMOS is modeled to recover roughly half of the range or fuel-economy loss from towing.
Illustrative targets, not validated performance results. Actual results will vary by tow vehicle, trailer load, route, speed, weather, and driving conditions. Hardware and road validation are next.
Gas · Hybrid · Electric
Designed to work with the vehicle you already drive.
Trailer-mounted sensors are designed to handle the core job, helping LUMOS ONE work with gas, hybrid, and electric tow vehicles rated for the trailer. Compatible vehicle data can add even more context.
COMPUTER-GENERATED VISUALIZATIONTechnology
SIM-VALIDATED
Sense. Decide. Assist.
LUMOS ONE is designed to understand trailer motion, decide whether help is needed, and respond with assist or energy recovery. Demonstrated in simulation; hardware and road validation are next.
Sense
Understand the trailer
Trailer-mounted sensors are designed to read motion and watch for faults.
Decide
Choose what to do
The controller is designed to decide when to assist, recover energy, or stay out of the way.
Assist
Respond when needed
Target design: two wheel motors assist on grades and recover energy during braking.
Safety intent
Confirmed faults are designed to move the system to a defined safe state. Verified in simulation; hardware verification is next.
Software foundation
The architecture follows AUTOSAR Classic Platform principles and has been exercised in simulation. Hardware testing is next.
