Or has that been done already? Unfortunately, that is too simple and wouldn't even need the microprocessor.

The system we debate on has not much in common with the durability of the bearing itself. You will still need to change your bearing shall you want something better than stock. It won't make any bearings live longer.
Be clear, the system is designed for real-time tracking of the condition of your bearing. Eyes on your bearing tune at all time & speeds + emergency kill switch features. Nice? We can design it so it will make engines live longer; you'll be able to spot your Clinks & Clunks trends and possibly even catch when that 'stray' ferrous metal passes a valve
anything out of the curve can be registered as fault codes. Limitless really
Those 'modern' sensors runs pretty fast band ranges these days lolll. High temp, metal shielded leads, life warranty stuff man
