rns of the wheel when driving. Therefore, when driving, the driver needs to change grip and turn the wheel several times, but since it is difficult to operate if the grip is not continuous when changing grips, steering wheels in almost all cars are circular. However, the AFEELA 1 uses VGR (variable steering gear ratio), which changes the steering gear ratio according to speed, thereby reducing the maximum steering angle. This allows the yoke-type...
