Tire Temperature System
Made this system (I'm an EE) for my car, and other HPDE guys I know. It's to know when your tires are up to operating temp. I thought I'd try and get some feedback here to see what people thought.
Here are the features of the kit:
The installation is straight forward. You drill a small hole in the wheel arch for the sensor to poke through. Top center is best to account for changes in tire angle. I'm aware 3 sensors per tire would be needed per corner to monitor camber load. But that's another kit--one with no display and CAN support for data-logging--and not this one, which is aimed at being sub $1k. If anyone is interested just send me a PM or email me at mikes at ntisys.com http://sven.signull.com/~mikes/TTS/D...otus_small.jpg http://sven.signull.com/~mikes/TTS/Sensors_small.jpg http://sven.signull.com/~mikes/TTS/harness_small.jpg |
You can pull temp already via obd ... There's just no guarantee on order.
Regardless, very nice! |
Tire temp through OBD? Maybe I'm missing something but how is that done? :Eyecrazy:

Science.

It's on the can bus... Race car would need tpms

The original project where I reverse engineered the data on the S1 bus:
Paimon held out on me back then :( when he did it with his S2 experiment. https://www.rx8club.com/attachments/...20512_2332.jpg |
That's pretty cool (the OP's device). When you say sub-1k, how far sub are we talking? ;)
The TMPS thing is cool, but I'd want to know tread temperature, which this wouldn't give right? |

Yup ... I'd classify the obd data as internal tire air temperature.
Your stuff is going far beyond that... I deal with hand grenades... This thread is laser guided. |

OP, pretty sure vendor status is req'd here for commercial thread posting

Cool idea. I thought of prototyping something like this just for fun. I would do 3 sensors per wheel, though, and output via CANBUS so most loggers can read the data.
