Blaupunkt India has entered a new segment with TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems). TPMS solutions create a safe driving condition for passengers and drivers by providing real time information and customizable alerts on tire pressure and temperature conditions. This helps mitigate the risk of accidents caused by tires, a very common problem in India, particularly with increase in highway, freeways and vehicles operating at higher speeds.
A pioneer with a 90 year history of technology innovation, Blaupunkt is the first to launch a vehicle tire pressure monitoring systems of international standards in the Indian market. The TPMS system gathers accurate pressure data directly from the tire valves via wireless sensors. It helps with flat tire prevention, tyre wear reduction and contributes to high impact fuel savings, by ensuring that tires operate in optimal conditions. The TPMS kit includes a display unit along with 4 easy to install tire sensors (including a locking mechanism to prevent theft).
In several international markets, tire pressure monitoring is becoming a regulatory safety requirement for automotive OEM's and therefore applicable to India OEM's exporting vehicles to these markets.
Preeti Bakshi, marketing head of Blaupunkt commented This is the first of several additional products that the company will launch in this emerging but important segment. Blaupunkt is leading the way with a range of TPMS solutions and technologies for retail and OEM segments, including passenger and commercial vehicles, where the companies TPMS solutions can monitor vehicles with 20+ tires and integration of the data into the head unit display, CAN network, smart phones etc. Stay tuned for more interesting developments from Blaupunkt in this space
