An unidentified presenter described a small, angled device that uses artificial intelligence to detect tires that are behaving differently and to flag those vehicles for inspection.

"The tire anomaly system allows us to compare tires using an artificial intelligence to compare the tires," the presenter said, explaining the core capability. The device is set at an angle so it can measure the inside tire before the outside tire, the presenter said, which helps identify which tire on a vehicle is problematic.

The presenter said the system will detect obvious problems such as a low or flat tire and will also flag less visible internal failures. "Another thing that it will detect is, tire separation," the presenter said. Tire separation, the presenter added, occurs beneath the tread and is not visible to drivers in its early stages.

"By catching it here, that's fewer trucks in the ditch, fewer trucks off side of the road, fewer trucks crashing into other vehicles," the presenter said, arguing that earlier detection would also reduce downtime for companies and drivers who otherwise must take vehicles out of service.

The presenter concluded by stressing the system's safety purpose: "But, the goal here is to make those trucks as safe as possible going down the road." The transcript did not provide deployment timelines, cost, specific locations of installation, or technical validation data.
