Advanced ID (RFID Technology) (fka AIDO)

[Rocky05]

This does not mean that Goodyear is not going with AIDO.

That tag is still required. I believe we are looking at different functions:

"...The Tire IQ system works through a "tire tag" developed by Goodyear and Siemens.This tag, comprised of a computer chip and sensor that monitors tire temperature and air pressure, is about the size of a watch battery and is built into the tire. The information is relayed to the driver via a radio communications system developed by Siemens.

The technology includes jointly developed software that calculates recommended tire pressure based on data including air temperature, tire pressure, tire load, vehicle speed and other driving habits.

Goodyear is the world's largest tire company. Headquartered in Akron, Ohio, the company manufactures tires, engineered rubber products and chemicals in more than 90 facilities in 28 countries. It has marketing operations in almost every country around the world. Goodyear employs about 92,000 people worldwide..."

Goodyear is not spending all that time and effort with the
AIDO tag for nothing. Besides they are already using it.
