Tyre pressure plays a significant role in ensuring safe and economical driving. This research work was done in two major steps. A novel tyre pressure control unit was developed using mechatronic engineering approach of system integration for the control of car tyre inflation pressure. The control unit is designed to comprise air compressor, microcontroller, pressure sensor and rotary valves. A software program was written and embedded in the microcontroller which counts the number of pulses in the pressure sensor. The paper also goes further to illustrate an ordinary (non survival) linear regression models for the variations in energy and inflation time with inflation pressure. The results obtained showed that the values of energy and inflation time increased and varied for the tyre specimen considered. The developed statistical models help to predict required energy and inflation time at different inflation pressures.
