Title: Mitsuhiro Wada: Innovator in Tire Pressure Detection Technology

Introduction

Mitsuhiro Wada is a prominent inventor based in Kobe, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of tire pressure detection technology, holding a total of 10 patents. His innovative work focuses on enhancing vehicle safety through advanced detection systems.

Latest Patents

One of Wada's latest patents is a device for detecting the low-pressure state of a tire. This device includes an index value calculation unit, a resonance frequency calculation unit, and a low-pressure detection unit. The index value calculation unit computes a low-pressure index value by analyzing the wheel speed information of both front and rear tires. The resonance frequency calculation unit determines the resonance frequency based on the tire's wheel speed information. The low-pressure detection unit effectively eliminates the influence of the vehicle's load to accurately detect the low-pressure state of the tire.

Another notable patent is the tire pressure decreased detection apparatus and method, along with a computer-readable medium for the same. This apparatus features rotation speed information detection means, rotation acceleration information calculation means, and resonance frequency estimate means. It calculates a time series correlation of the rotation acceleration information for the left and right driving wheels. The determination means assesses tire pressure decreases based on the estimated torsional resonance frequency.
