Pretty neat!
I wonder if this could be the perfect companion to Dave Lenzi's mid Boogie disc brake!

I had communicated with Dave and sent him the link.
He said that one wouldn’t work but there would probably be more in the near future.
He agreed that an electric one would probably be the way to go.

There are number of electric hydraulic/calipers out there but finding one with a large enough piston has been a challenge. I picked up some Tesla
electric parking brake calipers but finding space in the limited area available on a reaction arm coach has proven most difficult. It 'could' be done
but with more re-engineering than I'm willing to do at the moment. I'd guess there will be something in the near future that will work as the electric
parking brake seems to be the way the industry is heading. We'll just have to wait and see...
