According to reports, Michelin will implant radio frequency identification (RFID) chips in all of its car tires by 2023.

RFID chips will help improve driving safety and provide predictive maintenance services.

RFID can track the entire life cycle of tires and make a significant contribution to "predictive maintenance services". It can also be used to improve driving safety and enable advanced driver assistance systems (such as ESP) to be adjusted to specific tire characteristics. It also provides support for timely and accurate tire replacement, provides accurate tire identification and data for dealers and repair shops, reduces assembly errors, and helps control inventory.

This technology uses up to 15 million chips per year. It can be used to increase the recycling rate of used tires, verify recycling and improve the efficiency of energy recovery projects. As the links between cars become closer, Michelin is also working with automakers to develop algorithms to pave the way for further development.

Michael Ewert, vice president of global sales for Michelin's original equipment, said: "We are currently working with car manufacturers to develop algorithms. Because RFID technology can ensure such accurate tire identification, it is conceivable that drivers will see the status next to the tire fuel gauge in the future. Display. This status monitoring will become more and more important, especially for increasingly automated vehicles."
