Short Bio
Graduated in the construction of railway vehicles at the Czech Technical University in Prague.
Since 1981 in the railway industry (Škoda Transportation) as a designer, development manager and technical consultant.
Professional lectures at dozens of international professional conferences in Europe and Asia.
Interested in TRUE TRANSPORTATION TRANSITION.

Transportation Innovator in
ROAD, RAIL, AIR and NEW TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS

Some examples

ROAD VEHICLES
- MINIMOBIL - small 4-wheeler for city individual transport
- CYKLODRIVE - additional multi-purpose electric drive for bicycles for cheapest e-mobility
- COUPEMOBILE - multi-purpose advanced E-car for individual, semi-individual and semi-shared personal transport solving all e-mobility problems and pseudo autonomous ride and reducing the traffic density and parking problems

RAIL VEHICLES
- REGIOTRANS - cost effective electric railcar with replaceable battery for siding railway tracks
- OPTITRAM - modular system of low-cost low-floor trams with free swiveling bogies
- FLEXITRAM - streetcar with changeable capacity during a day according passenger´s need
- FLEXITRAIN - multiple unit consisting from wagons with standard bogies with high length-flexibility
- ATLAS - how to increase substantially the starting force of high-power locomotives
- how to make rail vehicles 5% wider without changing their geometry
- PASSENGER-FREIGHT double-deck WAGON of system ComplexTrans
- and many other partial solutions

AIRPLANES
- flexible combination of passenger-freight air transport ensuring full aircraft load
- AIR-TOWER - how to save time of transfer and how reduce the load on air corridors

NEW TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND SOLUTIONS
- COMPLEXTRANS - global mixed public-private road-rail passenger-freight city-intercity transportation system
- MICROMETRO - new public city subsurface individual transportation system

PEDESTRIAN MOBILITY
- SUPERSTAIRS - cheap moving staircase with low capacity for public and private use
- equipment for the transport of persons with reduced mobility, wheelchairs and prams on escalators

AND MUCH MORE.

We are looking for partners for further development and expansion of the above-mentioned advanced transport solutions.
