Drivers often overlook tyre pressure checks, which can lead to safety risks, reduced fuel efficiency, and premature tyre wear. There is a need for a system that continuously monitors tyre pressure and relays real-time data to a central office. This allows fleet managers to assess tyre conditions before vehicle departure and upon return, ensuring timely interventions. The ideal solution should alert both the driver and the control centre when pressure drops below optimal levels, improving operational safety and reducing maintenance costs.

Desired Outcome

A tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that not only alerts drivers in real time but also transmits live pressure and condition data to a centralised dashboard for fleet management teams. This system should support regular checks, flag critical readings, and provide historical data for preventive maintenance planning. Integration with existing fleet systems and mobile alerts would further enhance operational efficiency and ensure all vehicles are road-ready before deployment.

Potential Impact

Implementing such a system enhances road safety by reducing tyre-related accidents and breakdowns. It also optimises tyre performance, extends tyre lifespan, and lowers fuel consumption and emissions. For fleet operators, it provides greater oversight, reduces downtime, and allows data-driven maintenance. The result is a more reliable, cost-effective, and environmentally conscious transportation operation.
