Technology tire failure warning
Researchers at Purdue University - India is testing smart tire is designed to alert the driver of the weakness in the tires can lead to explosion or deflated tires before they occur. The difference of this technology different from the measuring system to the current air pressure in that tire functions as a sensor and any weaknesses of the car will also be determined immediately.
According to Reuters news agency intelligent tires are made with laminated structure consisting of different materials capable of transmitting signals, allows the system to detect any changes in the tires and then warns riders such as tearing, perforation, both the fault of the manufacturer or imbalances of the tires or the variation of substances and objects sticking to tires. Purdue's team is led by Professor Gary Krutz has 24 tire production and is planning a patent for this technology.
Professor Krutz believes that this technology will be able to be applied by the teams before racing forward for racing tires work extremely expensive even win a race depends largely on tire durability throughout the race.
Besides, this smart tires will be able to be integrated on the luxury label like Mercedes and BMW with its role as standard equipment or supplements before entering the lower-level models.
