Abstract
A method estimates a weight of a motor vehicle including front and rear wheel assemblies, using a smart communication device, after loading of the vehicle. The method includes identifying the vehicle in the smart communication device, using a camera of the smart communication device to capture and process a photograph of at least one wheel with at least one point of the vehicle brought to sink down jointly upon the loading of the vehicle with a suspension of the wheel of the vehicle, determining a clearance of the wheel assembly opposite the photographed wheel, calculating a load value on the wheel assembly of the photographed wheel and a load value on the opposite wheel assembly as a function of the respective clearances of these wheel assemblies, to determine a total load value, and using the smart communication device to inform a user of a load state of the vehicle.
