umm someone told me at my local skate park e13 was designing it but havent heard anything else on it so dont know if its true but pedals that spring back to being flat when theres no prssure on them like youll still be able to ride and move the pedals around and stuff but once your feet are off they become back to normal/flat so there is way less leg gouges/cuts

Im not sure if they exist already but valve caps that contain compressed air so if you get a slow puncture you can still get to the end of the trail?

It's pretty simple. They are based on rotary joint technology which exists widely in applications where fluid/electricity etc must be transferred through a rotating object ie revolving restaurant or manufacturing applications
