One promise of nitinol mesh tires on extraterrestrial rovers is that damage could in theory be remotely fixed via resistance heating. Does this product leverage the shape memory properties of nitinol in any way? If someone permanently deforms the inner wires, can they use heat to fix the damage without melting the outer rubber? If not, all the talk about shape-shifting seems to just be buzz words.
