New tyre safety technology from Falken

German based Falken Tyre Europe’s parent company Sumitomo Rubber Industries (SRI) has developed a totally new tyre wear detection technology that effectively improves safety and contributes towards new mobility trends in the automotive industry.

This latest breakthrough advances SRI’s proprietary Sensing Core technology and can detect various conditions related to the tyre including pressure load and overall road conditions. Specialised digital filtering technology analyses and interprets wheel speed signals as the tyre rotates combining this data with other engine data to calculate tread rigidity and wear levels.
