Continental ContiConnect Digital Tire Monitoring Platform

The ContiConnect digital tire-monitoring platform is a solution for remote tire monitoring, allowing fleet managers to see tire pressure and temperature data for the entire fleet in a single web portal, every time trucks return to the fleet yard.

Its tire sensors can identify creeping air loss before it would typically be noticed in a pre- or post-trip inspection, and its platform does not depend on a telematics or over-the-road connection. Tire data is collected via sensors, which are mounted on the inner liner of the tire to prevent damage from kerbing, eliminate theft, and ensure the sensor can detect the tire temperature and pressure without being influenced by heat from braking systems. As trucks enter the fleet yard, the yard reader station picks up data from the sensors and transmits it to the web portal via a cellular network.
