Abstract
A method includes, while a vehicle travels in a forward direction, adjusting an airfoil of the vehicle to move between a retracted position and a first extended position. At least a portion of the airfoil is recessed into a rear portion of the vehicle when the airfoil is in the retracted position. The airfoil is extended away from the rear portion of the vehicle when the airfoil is in the first extended position.
Claims22
A computer-implemented method when executed on data processing hardware causes the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:
- while a vehicle travels in a forward direction, adjusting an airfoil of the vehicle to move between:
- a retracted position, where at least a portion of the airfoil is recessed into a rear portion of the vehicle;
- and
- a first extended position, where the airfoil is extended away from the rear portion of the vehicle.
1 more element
A vehicle comprising:
- data processing hardware;
- and
- memory hardware in communication with the data processing hardware, the memory hardware storing instructions executed on the data processing hardware that cause the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:
- while the vehicle travels in a forward direction, adjusting an airfoil of the vehicle to move between:
- a retracted position, where at least a portion of the airfoil is recessed into a rear portion of the vehicle;
- and
- a first extended position, where the airfoil is extended away from the rear portion of the vehicle.
