Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Coming soon: Smart tires that could help you drive better

Tires are the only part of most vehicles that have direct, real-time contact with the ground. So, it could tell what the road condition is like and how the tires are rolling to the vehicle. This real-time information would allow the human or autonomous driver to make the necessary adjustments to drive more smoothly and safely. Tires with such sensors and information technologies are called smart tires. So far, only luxurious sports cars or special purpose vehicles are equipped with such smart tires to maximum performance or efficiency. But as IoT technologies become more affordable and universal, more commodity vehicles will come with such smart tires. This may become more necessary especially for self-driving cars because the human driver will pay less or no attention to driving.

If tires could speak, we would understand what’s happening to the car better and act before it’s too late.

Enjoy reading the article and learn about smart tires.
