Abstract

Nowadays, thieves aim for a vehicle’s wheel rims because it has the least security among all parts of the vehicle. It can cost up to a thousand ringgit for sports rims especially. Products are available in the market with lug-nut structured key which may help to secure wheel rims. However, they are not that much helpful.

Our wireless electronic wheel security prototype can provide more flexibility and protection that can assists the vehicle owner in unexpected situations.

Another product related to our project would be the TPMS which is in the market now. This product has electronic sensors in the tire valve to detect tire pressure and tread integrity warning but they are difficult to replace or service. In future TPMS could be equipped with predicative road condition system that could assist autonomous vehicle and navigation service provider with warning system. This is not tested due to lack of space and power source of the TPMS system.

We have found a novel solution for the above problem. The novel new placement suggested on a rotation wheel mass of the vehicle will provide ample space, power source and plug and play capability. Our device can perform all four functions - rim security, tire pressure, tire tread and road condition warning system. The accuracy is sufficient for pre-warnings to drivers.
