Wheelright is a "sleeping policeman", laid across a road surface and driven over by the user. The device, initially aimed at the commercial fleet operator, is typically placed at the entrance to a vehicle depot, can be used to acquire data from each individual tyre. This data is concertrated and transmitted wirelessly to a data server, from where it is accessed, via the internet by the user. Commercial users will see a payback in terms of fuel and tyre savings by using the information to maintain correctly inflated tyres. Wheelright is about to launch a series of user trials, with an expected product launch in 2009. |
