Tire Temperature Sensor Mount

Repo

Tire temperature sensors provide useful data about how the tire reacts to the track we are testing on. These sensors allow us to analyze the wear on different parts of a tire by tracking the heat. This new member project will involve the research and implementation of a tire temperature sensor for mk8 testing. By analyzing the tire temperature data in different testing environments, we will be able to optimize our suspension and wheels and steering setup for a given course to ensure we are getting the most out of the tire, with even wear. (heat uniform across the tire).
