Abstract
Provided is a tire assembly includes a tire, a power generating body disposed inside the tire, and an electronic device that receives supply of power that is output from the power generating body. The power generating body includes a first insulating film, a second insulating film, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The first insulating film has a first surface. The second insulating film has a second surface. The first and second electrodes have conductivity. The power generating body is configured such that a true area of contact between the first surface and the second surface changes according to deformation of the tire.
