Societal Problem Defined
The U.S. National Traffic Safety Administration states that one in three vehicles are unknowingly being driven
with one or more significantly under inflated tires.
![Page 5: OmnAuto (“All Car”). October 20, 20032 Members October 20, 20033 OmnAuto 1.Define the Problem 2.US Government Issues 3.Define the Solution 4.Market Identified.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea85503460f94bac4c1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
October 20, 2003 5
Problem Characteristics
In a survey of 2,350 drivers:• 66% of drivers don’t know where to find
recommended tire pressure• 45% of drivers think you can visually
inspect a tire for low pressure• Only 9% of drivers accurately and regularly
check their tire pressure

Safety is at Risk
• 23,000 crashes per year caused by tire blowouts
• 535 of those are fatal

Federal Mandates
• Transportation Recall Enhancement Accountability and Documentation Act (TREAD Act)
• Tire pressure monitoring – Section 13
• Monitoring will be phased in
![Page 8: OmnAuto (“All Car”). October 20, 20032 Members October 20, 20033 OmnAuto 1.Define the Problem 2.US Government Issues 3.Define the Solution 4.Market Identified.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea85503460f94bac4c1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
October 20, 2003 8
Federal Mandates Issues
• Provisions for direct and indirect monitoring
• Declared ineffective and must be rewritten for only direct monitoring

Proposed solution identified
The OmnAuto system provides the capability to alert the driver of low pressure relative to temperature and
maintains a history of pressure, temperature, vehicular speed, and mileage.
![Page 11: OmnAuto (“All Car”). October 20, 20032 Members October 20, 20033 OmnAuto 1.Define the Problem 2.US Government Issues 3.Define the Solution 4.Market Identified.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea85503460f94bac4c1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
October 20, 2003 11
Objectives
• Operation when the key is in the “on” position
• Record tire pressure, temperature, vehicle speed, and mileage every 2 minutes while vehicle is “on”
• Data is recorded in separate memory unit
![Page 12: OmnAuto (“All Car”). October 20, 20032 Members October 20, 20033 OmnAuto 1.Define the Problem 2.US Government Issues 3.Define the Solution 4.Market Identified.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea85503460f94bac4c1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
October 20, 2003 12
Objectives Continued
• Method to record significant equipment changes – tire replacement or repairs
• Availability of data to consumers
• Availability of data to mechanics
• Use of Graphs to analyze data

Pros
• OmnAuto will save lives
• Pressure will be monitored more frequently than consumers currently average
• Will meet the Federal Mandate as currently written, and the changes ordered by the Federal Appeals Court
• Required technology is already available
![Page 16: OmnAuto (“All Car”). October 20, 20032 Members October 20, 20033 OmnAuto 1.Define the Problem 2.US Government Issues 3.Define the Solution 4.Market Identified.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea85503460f94bac4c1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
October 20, 2003 16
Pros Continued
• Tires will wear more evenly
• Increased fuel efficiency
• Tire and Auto designs will both benefit due to the valuable “Real-World” historical data
• Consumers can play an active role in the safety of their vehicle
![Page 17: OmnAuto (“All Car”). October 20, 20032 Members October 20, 20033 OmnAuto 1.Define the Problem 2.US Government Issues 3.Define the Solution 4.Market Identified.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea85503460f94bac4c1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
October 20, 2003 17
Cons
• 67% will rely on the system instead of checking tire pressure manually
• Relies on existing vehicle electrical system• Human interaction to upload data from the system• Reprogramming required on tire change or rotation

What Our Solution Will Do
• Monitor for temperature and pressure, and alert driver based on both
• Maintain history of pressure, temperature, vehicular speed, and mileage
• Data will be available to any service provider with industry standard equipment
![Page 19: OmnAuto (“All Car”). October 20, 20032 Members October 20, 20033 OmnAuto 1.Define the Problem 2.US Government Issues 3.Define the Solution 4.Market Identified.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649ea85503460f94bac4c1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
October 20, 2003 19
What Our Solution Will Not Do
• Adjust tire pressure
• Prevent sensor failure
• Monitor Tread wear
• Indicate level of under pressurization

Conclusion
• Tires are not properly inflated
• Federal Mandate is not strong enough
• If data is available, safety will improve, both long and short term
• If we save only one life, OmnAuto will be a huge success.
