FRANKFURT, Germany — Continental A.G. has unveiled a concept technology system dubbed Conti CARE (connected, autonomous, reliable and electrified) for managing tires in electric and autonomous fleets.
In combination with the web-based ContiConnect Live application, Conti claims Conti CARE optimizes costs through monitoring tire wear and adjusting the tire pressure on the go.
Unveiled during the Frankfurt International Motor Show (IAA), under way through Sept. 22, the system features sensors built into the structure of the tire that generate and evaluate data concerning tread depth, possible damage, tire temperature and tire pressure, Conti said.The ContiSense monitoring system transmits information on the condition of the tires to ContiConnect Live, making mobility management for fleet operators more efficient.
