In German, the word "surveillance" sounds a bit harsh. Perhaps that's why we prefer to use "monitoring" these days. Service monitoring, telemonitoring, patient monitoring, environmental biomonitoring, water monitoring by water managers, city monitoring, web monitoring, data monitoring, and, what interests us most, the monitoring of vehicle tires. The term "monitoring" encompasses more than just the vigilant observation of changes. In monitoring, data is collected, grouped, and processed; warning thresholds are set; models are developed; and attempts are made to protect against unpleasant surprises.
Where could this be more useful than with car tires? Anyone who has ever experienced a tire blowout knows what I'm talking about. And the tire doesn't blow out because it was overinflated; in most cases, it's the opposite: it's because there wasn't enough air for the tire to function properly, and the tire had begun to deform. Tire monitoring is especially important at this time of year. Wet roads, fallen leaves, and soon snow and ice place a lot of strain on tires. Tires can only perform optimally with the correct tire pressure; give them the chance to do so and have your tire pressure and temperature monitored by a TireMoni system.
That's why it's so important to know your tire pressure while driving. Especially in winter. Because, let's be honest, who checks tire pressure at the gas station during the wet and cold season? Who would voluntarily unscrew the little valve caps while wearing gloves and then roll them under the car?
In winter, tire pressure monitoring via sensors helps avoid those routine tire pressure checks at gas stations. You only add air when you see on the TireMoni monitor that air is actually needed, and then only in the affected tire. You no longer have to unscrew the valve caps on all wheels, test the air pressure, and then screw them back on to find the one tire that needs to be topped up. The TireMoni display lets you read the air pressure and tire temperature of every tire on the vehicle and even automatically warns you if these values change too drastically. While driving, of course. https://shop.TireMoni.com
