Abstract

In this paper we present an image processing application for automatic shape analysis of tire-ground contact area. To conduct such evaluations is essential since tires are responsible for giving support for the vehicle and for transforming forces necessary to obtain required kinematic behavior of the vehicle. Normally analysis and comparison of footprints is done “manually”, just by looking on them, automatisation by means of image processing can make them objective and more efficient.
