Conv-Tire: Tire Condition Assessment using Convolutional Neural Networks
Purpose: In this study, the authors designed an algorithm based on convolutional neural networks that can automatically assess tire quality.Design/methodology/approach: The proposed algorithm is built through several stages as follows. In the first stage, the tire images, which are the input of the designed algorithm, are acquired.

Tire-Pressure Identification Using Intelligent Tire with Three-Axis Accelerometer
An intelligent tire uses sensors to dynamically acquire or monitor its state. It plays a critical role in safety and maneuverability. Tire pressure is one of the most important status parameters of a tire; it influences vehicle performance in several important ways.

Terrain classification using intelligent tire [PDF]
Abstract A wheeled ground robot was designed and built for better understanding of the challenges involved in utilization of accelerometer-based intelligent tires for mobility improvements. Since robot traction forces depend on the surface type and the friction associated with the tire-road interaction, the measured acceleration signals were used for
