Abstract
A tire wear state estimation system includes a first sensor unit that is mounted on a tire and includes a footprint centerline length measurement sensor. A second sensor unit is mounted on the tire and includes a shoulder length measurement sensor. At least one of the first sensor unit and the second sensor unit includes a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, and electronic memory capacity for storing tire identification information. A processor is in electronic communication with the sensor units and receives the measured centerline length, the measured pressure, the measured temperature, the identification information, and the measured shoulder length. The identification information is correlated to tire construction data. An analysis module stored on the processor receives the measured values, the identification information, and the tire construction data as inputs. The analysis module includes a prediction model that generates an estimated wear state for the tire from the inputs.
