Imagine never having to pump air into your bike tire again. According to the CEO of PumpTire, you can stop imagining & start purchasing.
I’m not an engineer, so I don’t know for sure whether this will work or not, but it sure sounds like a nice concept. Have a look at the PumpTire process on this video:

Sounds Interesting. I wonder how well it really works?
I wonder the same thing. I'll be curious to see how well it works in "real world" situations.
