4. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_monitoring...

   A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

   Cold inflation pressure is a gauge pressure and not an absolute pressure. This article focuses on cold inflation pressures for passenger vehicles and trucks. The general principles are, of course, applicable to bicycle tires, tractor tires, and any other kind of tire with an internal structure that gives it a defined size and shape (as opposed ...
