Abstract
A tire-wear detection system for an automated vehicle includes a steering-angle-sensor, a vehicle-path-detector, and a controller. The steering-angle-sensor indicates a steering-angle of a host-vehicle. The vehicle-path-detector indicates a turning-radius of the host-vehicle. The controller is in communication with the steering-angle-sensor and the vehicle-path-detector. The controller determines a wear-status of a tire of the host-vehicle based on the turning-radius and the steering-angle.
Claims6
A tire-wear detection system for an automated vehicle, said system comprising:
