Technical Rubber Co. Inc. (TRC) has launched Advanced Mobility Solutions (AMS), a new, wholly owned business unit that will bring a mobility solution offering to market.
According to TRC CEO Dan Layne, “Change is all about us. We see this daily in our legacy businesses. This change creates opportunities, particularly with connected, autonomous, shared and electrified vehicles.
"The way people and products will be transported is rapidly reshaping our world and AMS intends to be at the center of these emerging modalities of mobility.”
According to TRC officials, "AMS will now bring to market its initial mobility solution offering - an autonomous tire health monitoring and data analytics solution called Smart-Tread," which will provide fleet operators with a wealth of tire performance data, driven by a robust data analytics engine using newly discovered 'NanoWave' direct tire data capture technology.
"AMS will add additional leading edge mobility solutions to its portfolio as it innovates in the era of emerging technological advancements, such as efficient electric motors, increased battery life, alternative fuels, satellite navigation, application development and integration and vehicle informatics, unmanned aircraft and smart sensors.
AMS also will form "strategic business alliances with public /private partnerships, institutions of higher education, municipalities and other governmental agencies."
