Tire Wear, Tread Depth Reduction, and Service Life
VehiclesTires are important for the transmission of forces, good traction of the vehicle, and safety of the passengers. Tires also influence vehicle fuel consumption and cause tire and road wear pollution to the environment in the form of microplastics.

Vision-Based Inspection of Tyre Tread Depth [PDF]
Transactions of FAMENA, 2021 In this paper, an approach for visual, non-contact automatic inspection of tyre tread depth based on existing image processing techniques is presented. Histograms of oriented gradient are used for feature extraction from images. In order to analyse which set of features gives the best classification results, a linear support-vector machine classifier ...
