title: "How to check tire condition with computer vision"
description: "Drivers, yard staff or a drive-over camera can take photos of each tire during a routine check. A computer vision model trained on your own tire images can flag tread that looks worn or uneven, cuts, bulges, cracks and objects stuck in the tread, and attach the photo to the vehicle record by wheel position. It helps a fleet catch problems between scheduled services and gives a tire shop a clear photo to show the customer. A technician confirms every flag with a hands-on check and gauge before any tire is passed, repaired or replaced, and safety decisions stay with them."

# How can computer vision help a fleet or tire shop check tread and sidewall condition from photos?
Drivers, yard staff or a drive-over camera can take photos of each tire during a routine check. A computer vision model trained on your own tire images can flag tread that looks worn or uneven, cuts, bulges, cracks and objects stuck in the tread, and attach the photo to the vehicle record by wheel position. It helps a fleet catch problems between scheduled services and gives a tire shop a clear photo to show the customer. A technician confirms every flag with a hands-on check and gauge before any tire is passed, repaired or replaced, and safety decisions stay with them.
## What this means in practice
- Set a simple photo routine for each wheel position during pre-trip or yard checks.
- Label your own tire photos for wear, cuts, bulges, cracks and embedded objects.
- Train or tune a model and save each flag to the vehicle record by wheel.
- A technician confirms every flag with a hands-on check and tread gauge.
- Track repeat wear patterns by vehicle so alignment or loading issues get fixed.
