FAQ

Tie rods are critical for steering force transmission and vehicle handling. Accurately measuring these forces helps ensure safety, detect wear early, validate designs, and avoid failures that can lead to costly recalls — especially in steer-by-wire or advanced driver assistance systems.

It estimates the forces transmitted through the tie rods during steering manoeuvres, providing high-frequency and high-accuracy data equivalent to strain gauges.

Unlike hardware-based solutions, the Virtual Sensor runs in software and uses existing vehicle signals, making it faster, cheaper, robust, and more scalable.

Yes. It is validated across weather conditions and driving scenarios, including extreme manoeuvres and rough road surfaces.

Integration is fast and seamless via existing ECUs or cloud environments, depending on your data strategy.

Absolutely. It is designed for both development and series production use, enabling continuous insight and system monitoring.
