1. A tire pressure measuring device comprising:

  • a data generating impact module constructed and arranged for striking a pneumatic tire with an impulse of arbitrary value, generating data correlative to the impulse of arbitrary value imparted to the pneumatic tire and transmitting the data to a data gathering module;

    the data generating impact module further comprising a head configured to receive an acceleration sensor and having a striking face constructed and arranged to impart the impulse of arbitrary value to the pneumatic tire, an acceleration sensor positioned within the head and configured to sense an acceleration as a function of time, and a handle configured to be held by a human hand and constructed and arranged to impart the impulse of arbitrary value imparted by a human hand to the head;

    the data gathering module being constructed and arranged to receive the data from the data generating, impact module and communicate the data to a data processing module;

    the data processing module being constructed and arranged to receive the data from the data gathering module, process the data to determine the pressure of the pneumatic tire and communicate the determined pressure of the pneumatic tire to a tire pressure output; and

    the tire pressure output being constructed and arranged to receive the determined pressure of the pneumatic tire and output the determined pressure of the pneumatic tire.
