  5. 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).

    A water-based sealant can be injected into the tire also through the valve stem. This contains less harmful chemicals and no aerosol gas. The sealant can then be driven into the tire using an air compressor. A flat tire can be repaired by a patch or plug; [4] or the tire may repair itself. Self-sealing tires work on punctures up to a certain size.
