The Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) from Sensata Technologies was developed for vehicle OEMs to help improve vehicle safety and performance. Sensata’s BLE TPMS replaces the ultra-high frequency (UHF) radio with BLE radio to enable two-way communication. The BLE TPMS solution is available in both clamp-in and snap-in configurations, optimized for long battery life, and delivers the same pressure, temperature, and auto-location capabilities as Sensata’s existing UHF TPMS. With Over-the-Air updates, drivers can download tire-related features and software updates, avoiding a trip to the shop for service. BLE two-way communication also enables cyber security authentication and adds a layer of protection from being hacked. Sensata will be launching production in the first half of 2023.
