2. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Tire-pressure_monitoring_system

   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).

3. Direct TPMS - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_TPMS

   direct TPM sensor fitted in valve system, manufacturer VDO. In most current designs of direct TPMS, a small electronic assembly which is rugged enough to be mounted inside a tire, measures the pressure using a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) [1] pressure sensor and then transmits this and other information to one or more vehicle receivers. [1]

4. Tire-pressure gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_gauge

   To use a tire gauge, the valve stem of the tire must be accessed. The gauge is then pressed onto the valve stem, and the pressure reading is taken. For accurate results, it is important to perform this task when the tires are cold, as pressure can increase with heat from driving.

5. Valve stem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_stem

   A valve stem is a self-contained valve that opens to admit gas to a chamber (such as air to inflate a tire), [1] and is then automatically closed and kept sealed by the pressure in the chamber, or a spring, [2] [3] or both, to prevent the gas from escaping.

6. Tire - Wikipedia

   Most modern passenger vehicles are now required to have a tire pressure monitoring system which usually consists of a valve stem attached to an electronic module. [ 34 ] Inner tube : Most bicycle tires , many motorcycle tires , and many tires for large vehicles such as buses, heavy trucks, and tractors are designed for use with inner tubes .
