Steering compensated speed override for vehicle drive system

Looks like John Deere has found a need for a technology similar to Torvec's Steer-Drive system.

While Torvec's Steer-Drive system’s initial function appears to be limited to tracked vehicles, I wonder if it either is or can be further enhanced to become appropriate for wheeled vehicles also.

With a portion of the leading hydraulic technology momentum headed towards digital, it seems to me that motors at the wheels are a natural part of Steer-Drive enhancements. Torvec's technologies either already are or could become a part of this effort.

It seems to me that the work that is being done by Torvec to incorporate Torvec’s Power Train components into the Lunar Rover is complementing this effort. The fact that the Lunar Rover’s six independently driven wheels are controlled by the Steer-Drive system included with that technology; this is really part of the same effort.

I can only imagine how HUGE that would be for the average 4 wheeled vehicle here on Earth!

Here is some recently published patent information of the effort at John Deere that they will use on their wheeled vehicles:

I am imagining that this Lunar Rover Steer-Drive work and research contributed to the annual meeting’s announcement that Torvec has at least 50 new patented technologies in that last fiscal year.
