I would appreciate any ideas regarding a way to insert a U-shaped metal filament into the inside of tire.

To start with, where do you want to place this U-wire? Inside the tyre's cavity or within the tyre's structure?
RE: How to insert a filament into tire
The shape of the pin could possibly be a U-shaped pin with the base on top (that is an inverted "U") and the bottom ends would be flush with the inner surface of the tyre. The U shape would almost look like two "I" letters, connected at the top.
What I am actually asking is for a tool or method to introduce such a pin into the tyre. I hope my description is clear. Please feel free to ask for more clarifications.

Any metal pin introduced in this way would also need to be brass plated to allow a bond to form between the metal of the pin and the rubber. Next the pin must pass through textile and steel cords without damaging the cords or the pin. Finally, such an installation, even though it would be very light weight, could possibly cause problems with the static and dynamic balance and the radial run out and radial force harmonics within the tyre.
How do you propose for the signal from the control box to be carried to the indicator lights?
