I can't find much about this technology at all. Google turns up mostly sales pages. Nothing in Gbooks Some Hackday stuff in Gnews. PROD declined by article author. Fails WP:GNG. Mr. Vernon (talk) 07:37, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

This the technology that is used in almost all high-powered applications including skateboards. It is the only viable open source ESC. If you cannot find something on it yourself does not mean that it does not exist. Also the technology being sold as a product on some websites does not discount the fact it is novel and important. In addition to all this, I spent a lot of time gathering resources about the topic and every point in the article is referenced.--M. Hassan  talk here 15:14, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Unfortunately, hard work and verified existence are not indicators of notability. "Notability" in these discussions means something a bit different than it does in normal English usage.  The general notability guideline is that there should be evidence of significant coverage in independent, reliable sources for an article subject to be considered notable.  The sources presented in the article do not demonstrate those qualities.  All of the sources cannot be considered independent as they are from people and organizations either developing or selling these controllers. These sources do not demonstrate that this technology has made any impact beyond a small circle of enthusiasts.  I hope this helps explain things.
