The IDS pod, battery latch and side lever, the wireless remote controller and cradle components, ferrules, wire clips and fork supports (when required), are all CNC-machined from solid billets of Peraluman 470 Aluminium Grade 5083/AIMg 4.5Mn, and are polished, anodised, laser engraved and weather-sealed.

State-of-the-art surface-mounted technology is used throughout. Smooth but responsive control of the digital motor is assured by a 32-bit ARM Cortex microcontroller, running at 120MHz, permitting complex performance calculations which run continuously without delay. The ARM device includes 256 kilobytes of Flash Memory to allow for customised motor drive algorithms which adapt instantly to road conditions and user requirements. Highly efficient Power Supplies are used to minimise battery usage, and a 3-axis accelerometer uses micro electromechanical technology to determine how steep the incline is at any moment.

There are also three fully compliant USB-C ports located on the side of the pod for phone or GPS charging at up to 1.5A, as well as ports for integrating lighting systems to the pod and controlling them with the ARCC Wireless Remote Controller, or the free ARCC Control app (available via the Apple App Store and Google-Play).
