Inflatable paddle board
The present invention provides an inflatable paddle board including an inflatable paddle board body, an air pressure detection device, and an air pressure display device, where the air pressure detection device is configured to detect air pressure in an air chamber of the inflatable paddle board body and transmit detected air pressure information; and the air pressure display device is configured to receive and display the air pressure information. The inflatable paddle board provided by the present invention enables a user to know the air pressure of the inflatable paddle board at any time, so that the abnormal situation of the air pressure of the inflatable paddle board can be found in time and a response can be made, and the inflatable paddle board has high safety.
Apparatus for wheel-mounted wireless measurement of tire pressure and method for doing the same
A tire parameter measurement method, device, and system of using the same are described herein. One method includes an inflatable tire and wheel assembly with an internally mounted pressure sensor apparatus, measuring pressure values, associating the sensor to an identification reader to receive the pressure values from the pressure sensor, and notifying a user of the measured pressure.
ANALOG INPUT DEVICE, COMPUTING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING AND PROCESSING ANALOG INPUT
An analog input device including at least one mounting panel and a matrix of analog push button assemblies mounted thereon. Each analog push button assembly including an analog pressure sensor including a pressure reception arrangement having an optical sensing sub-arrangement configured to measure an amount of light varied according to a pressure sensed at the pressure reception arrangement and an output terminal for outputting an analog signal corresponding to the amount of light measured, and a plunger element configured to exert the pressure on the pressure reception arrangement. The analog input device may include a multiplexer including an input side coupled to the push button assemblies and an output side; an analog-to-digital converter coupled to the output side of the multiplexer; a processor coupled to the analog-to-digital converter and configured to output a data packet; and a communication interface configured to transmit the data packet to a host computing device.
MODEL BASED TIRE WEAR ESTIMATION SYSTEM AND METHOD
A tire wear estimation system is provided. The system includes at least one tire that supports a vehicle. At least one sensor is affixed to the tire to generate a first predictor. A lookup table or a database stores data for a second predictor. One of the predictors includes at least one vehicle effect. A model receives the predictors and generates an estimated wear rate for the at least one tire.
System for tires pressure and wear detection
A system for detecting pressure and wear conditions of tires that includes a module positioned inside each wheel of a vehicle. The module includes sensors, a processor, a transmitter and a power source for powering the module. The output from the sensors in each wheel is fed to the processors of each wheel for data processing and the data is transmitted by the transmitter in each wheel to a receiver and data processor located outside of the wheels. The data processor is designed to analyze the received processed data from the modules, and to provide alerts based on stored information and by comparing the processed data from the first wheel with the processed data from the second wheel.
