Currently, most tire inspection systems on the market rely on measuring tire pressure or temperature to determine whether the tires are abnormal. However, these systems cannot effectively predict tire lifespan, identify aging levels, or detect abnormal tire conditions. Neglecting the condition of one’s own tires during normal driving may lead to unforeseen accidents. Therefore, this project aims to develop a tire anomaly detection system based on image recognition technology. The proposed system utilizes image recognition, machine learning, and AI algorithms to predict tire lifespan and aging levels. It distinguishes between the aging levels and abnormal conditions of tire treads. Additionally, the project includes the development of a smartphone app and a web management platform. The objectives include: 1. Instantaneous inspection through on-the-spot photo capture, allowing for a quick assessment of tire condition. 2. A mobile application featuring tire inspection, tire usage records, estimated mileage, user feedback, and other functionalities. 3. Utilization of deep learning convolutional neural network technology for recognizing various tire anomaly conditions. 4. Establishment of a cross-platform tire management web interface for use by automotive manufacturers and general users.
Through experimental testing, the system demonstrates an impressive AI recognition accuracy of up to 93%.
