AstroAI Tire Pressure Gauge, 2024

01

Artifact Overview

Gauges like this one measured air pressure inside a motor vehicle's tires. Its digital readout provided more precise readings than those from analog-dial units. Maintaining correct tire pressure improves vehicle safety, fuel efficiency, and tire service life. Since 2007, vehicles sold in the United States have been required to have their own internal measuring systems.
