Tyre manufacturer Continental has launched ContiConnect, a tyre information and management system for commercial fleets. ContiConnect monitors, analyses and reports tyre pressure and temperature for the entire fleet based on data collected by the proven ContiPressureCheck sensors.

ContiConnect notifies the fleet manager and offers corrective measures if needed, for example through a Conti360 service partner. An online portal provides transparent reports on the fleet’s tyre performance and overall efficiency.

ContiConnect works with both retrofitted and factory-fitted ContiPressureCheck sensors and can work in multiple set-ups to connect all tyres in a fleet, both vehicles that are on the road, as well as to those returning to base. The system can collect data from a stationary receiver in a depot, or from a receiver unit in every vehicle on the road in real-time and sends an alert in the event of a service requirement.

The ContiPressureCheck system, which provides input to ContiConnect, is compatible with a wide variety of fleet management systems on the market, including solutions which come from different original equipment as well as aftermarket manufacturers.

    Adopting universal technology platforms for tolling
    Dave Marples of Technolution argues that the continuing development of tolling-specific onboard equipment is leading us up a blind alley. We should, he says, be looking to realise universal platforms with universal application. The near-future automobile contains information systems of a sophistication to rival a jet airliner of only a few years ago, yet is 'piloted' by a considerably less well-trained individual of highly variable mental and physical capacity, and operated in a hostile, unpredictable and p
