Abstract

A method includes identifying sensor data associated with corresponding distal ends of one or more axles of an autonomous vehicle (AV). The method further includes determining, based on the sensor data, mass distribution data of the AV. The mass distribution data is associated with a first load proximate a first distal end of a first axle of the AV and a second load proximate a second distal end of the first axle of the AV. The method further includes causing, based on the mass distribution data, performance of a corrective action associated with the AV.
