In order to detect tyre problems or predict when one needs replacing, 843 Goodyear is to equip Tesloop, the city-to-city service based on 8534 Tesla semi-autonomous vehicles, with wireless sensors to improve tyre management and boost uptime.


The wireless sensors continuously measure and record tyre temperature and pressure, which is then paired with other vehicle data connected to Goodyear’s cloud-based algorithms to enhance overall fleet operations and predict issues before they happen.

    Smart cities must rely on a mobility mix, real-time predictive models and collaborations, argues PTV’s Miller Crockart. Transport is reaching a new frontier and cities are at the forefront of the trend: for many urbanites, mobility no longer equals a privately-owned vehicle. They want on-demand services that cater for their individual mobility needs efficiently and sustainably - whether that is shared bikes or autonomous electric vehicles. Private car ownership will not drop overnight. The smooth

    Perceptions of machine vision being an expensive solution are being challenged by developments in both core technologies and ancillaries. Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti
