Infrared (IR) Measurement: The system uses infrared sensors to measure the tire temperature without direct contact, ensuring fast and accurate readings without affecting the tire's surface. The non-contact measurement means the sensors won't cause any wear on the tires and can capture precise temperature data during races or practice sessions.
Real-Time Tire Temperature Monitoring: The IR sensors allow for real-time tire temperature monitoring, which is crucial for understanding tire behavior throughout a session. Continuous monitoring ensures that adjustments can be made quickly to avoid overheating or underperformance in the tires.
Seamless Integration with AiM Systems: The kit integrates easily with AiM data acquisition systems, such as the MyChron5 or MyChron 5S, allowing you to log the tire temperature data directly into your telemetry system for detailed analysis. This integration ensures that you can track tire temperature data alongside other performance metrics like lap times, RPM, and engine temperature for comprehensive race analysis.
Durable and Motorsport-Ready Design: Designed to withstand the rigorous conditions of motorsports, including high-speed environments, vibration, heat, and moisture. The IR tire sensors are robust and built to last, ensuring reliability in all racing conditions.
