Within the last 3 months a physicist, an electrical engineer and 3 mechanical engineers have dealt with solutions that have been non-existent in the motor industry so far. In addition to various considerations and calculations, a Delphi survey was carried out to obtain the opinion of experts concerning the feasibility of approaches and new suggestions. Last but not least, users were interviewed with regard to the acceptance of new usage paradigms. To further increase the degree of innovation, the ground-breaking approaches were not only analysed but also further modified and combined.
