When you order Ctrl-Platform, you are ordering the original. Ctrl-Bar 2 — the precision aluminum control bar at the heart of Ctrl-Platform — is protected by an international design registration filed through the WIPO Hague System (reference WIPO164829), covering the European Union, United States, United Kingdom, China, Switzerland, and Iceland.

What the registration protects

The design registration covers the distinctive visual form of Ctrl-Bar 2: the dual aluminum knobs, the button layout, the integrated display windows, and the overall form factor as it mounts in your Tesla Model 3 or Model Y. Five technical reproductions from multiple angles are on file with WIPO. The design was created by Vetle Husby, founder of Greenmission.

Why this matters when you see alternatives

The Tesla accessory market has no shortage of imitations. When cheaper look-alikes appear, they are working around a registered design. The Ctrl-Bar 2 form — the one developed over three years of real-world use with Ctrl-Bar 1 customers across more than 30 countries — is the protected original.

International registration is not a formality. It is a commitment: this design is worth protecting because it took years to get right.

Built to last, registered to prove it

Ctrl-Bar 2 uses milled aluminum knobs, custom-designed button molds, and a Japanese-patented anti-fingerprint coating. The WIPO registration is the formal recognition of what Ctrl-Bar 1 customers already knew: this is a product built with intention, not assembled from generic parts.

Pre-orders are open now. 30-day risk-free trial and 2-year warranty included.
