Safety is the most important thing for any driver. No matter how fast you’re flying, you want to feel secure while driving your car right? Well Pirelli is working on that and they have some smart tires in the works.
Pirelli’s Cyber Tyre is an intelligent tire with an RFID microchip inside which will be always in constant contact with the car’s computer and certain features like ABS and traction control. Temperature, pressure, road surface, vertical information and even dimensions of the footprint area will be just some of the transmitted information by the tire.
Pirelli is counting on those sensors to make the car safer. With the information received from them, the computer should react faster, whether we’re talking about traction issues or fuel economy assessment.
