Warning! Warning!

Only if it's "The Robot's" voice.]]>Dec 20th 2007 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/
but I guess NASCAR could use this... Fans will probably hate it though... and go to F1.... then realize they don't like anything that lets the driver turn right....

Seriously though, this could prove to be interesting...]]>Dec 20th 2007 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/Dec 20th 2007 12:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/Dec 20th 2007 1:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/
These would be good to have on tractor trailers that share our highways with us. Where better to prevent loss of property and lives? ]]>Dec 20th 2007 10:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/Dec 20th 2007 11:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/Dec 20th 2007 11:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/

The cool thing is, you'll not only get a TPM, you'll also get an L.E.D screen to show you which tire is pwned.]]>Dec 20th 2007 11:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/
If I had this crap on my 03 Chevy truck which has 20" wheels, I wouldn't have put them in my wheels. You can't disable the warning light which can get annoying, but I could easily make something to put all the sensors in and pressurize and toss under the seat. Problem solved.

TPS seems like a good Idea, but it's pointless! After the 5-6 year old car TPS sensors die, few will pay for new replacements and the programming to make the new ones work. The only ones that will continue to work are on the cheapo cars that don't actually have a TPS sensor in the tire, but use the ABS sensors and the computer to make a educated guess. Not as Accurate but it works good enough and doesn't require anything extra the car doesn't already have.]]>Dec 20th 2007 10:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/Dec 20th 2007 11:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.freshcreation.nl/comments.php?id=277_0_1_0_C]]>Dec 20th 2007 11:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/purdue-tire-design-can-sense-damage-warn-driver/
