Leave all those to a mere nightmare now. Michelin has come up with the perfect innovative solution for that. Michelin showcased early last year the future tire innovation at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). This future tire, called “Tweel”, is composed of the normal tire and wheel combination but lacks one vital component on traditional tires...air. Yes! NO AIR TIRE!!!<br /><br />The Tweel has been tested for performance on an Audi A4 and it proved a superb driving capability. Dean Kamen's iBOT™ invention allows the Tweel to climb stairs and maneuver uneven terrains. Indeed, such breakthrough technology gives mobility freedom to vehicles that used to be impossible with traditional cars. It also have a self-balancing technology to further increase its performance potential.<br /><br />This airless tire waves its bye-bye to air valves, air compressors at gas stations, and repair kits. Tweel is composed of a tread, sheer band, deformable wheel, and flexible spokes. Its simple looking hub and spoke takes over the need for air pressure while having performance that only pneumatic tires can deliver. The flexible spokes are fused with a flexible wheel that deforms to absorb shock and rebound with unimaginable ease.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34710845-115871095621421023?l=emina07.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Christinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04256696029880879177noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34710845.post-1158710121482274202006-09-19T16:54:00.000-07:002006-09-19T16:55:21.490-07:00The makers of car accessories has really found its way to the car enthusiasts with the recent release of car monitors in the market. The demand for car monitors sky-rocketed with its new innovative releases. Imagine the old-fashioned mini-TVs laying over your old car's dashboard. It used to be a far-fetched dream that these mini-TVs would later on become a hit. Furthermore, it evolved to becoming flat-screen LCDs that can be attached to different spots inside your car.<br /><br />Car monitor price ranges from $200 to $900, depending on type, quality, etc. It has really been the latest hip in the market nowadays. At first thought, it may seem hard and dangerous to have one since it may serve as a distraction while driving. Nonetheless, many people patronize this innovation either to be hip and cool, or for the sincere purpose of being able to watch TV even outside the house.<br /><br />Having a car monitor can also help the driver keep track with the traffic situation or some other relevant news breaks while on the street. It can also help avoid rushing while driving just to catch the basketball game you've been watching closely.<br /><br />With the fast-pace of technology these days, car monitors range in an ocean of variety with sizes, thickness, car-spot location/mounting, remote-capable, touch screens, and many more. The market is also well represented with all the different car monitor manufacturers offering a lot of good deal packages. We shouldn't even wonder if tomorrow, your car can have a built-in bathroom in it with bath tub and bowl. So keep up with the trends and innovations brought to us by technology.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34710845-115871012148227420?l=emina07.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Christinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04256696029880879177noreply@blogger.com0
