This synergy enhances driving dynamics and safety by providing real-time tire and road data to the vehicle’s chassis system.

Goodyear (NASDAQ: GT) and TNO have announced a significant advancement in vehicle safety systems by integrating tire intelligence technology into automatic emergency braking (AEB). The enhancement, building on their previous integration of tire intelligence into antilock braking systems, allows AEB to function effectively across various driving conditions, including wet roads and ice.
The integration of Goodyear SightLine, the company's tire intelligence solution, enables AEB systems to make smarter decisions based on real-time tire and road condition data. Recent wet road testing shows that the enhanced system can help mitigate impacts at speeds up to 80 kph (50 mph) by engaging braking earlier.
This development positions Goodyear ahead of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's 2029 mandate for AEB systems in passenger vehicles, offering OEMs and tier-1 suppliers a competitive advantage in building safer vehicles.
