Low-Cost Sensing System for the Detection and Classification of Wide Base Tire Types and Distribution at the Network Level
A sensor system embedded in ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber strips, utilizing force transducer
technology to detect tire widths, vehicle classifications, and wheel wander at highway speeds can
be deployed in high-traffic corridors to
monitor wide-base tires and their impacts on pavement performance.
The TRB IDEA (Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis) Program's
NCHRP IDEA Final Report for Project 238:
Low-Cost Sensing System for the Detection and Classification of Wide Base Tire Types and Distribution at the
Network Level
develops a pioneering low-cost sensing system for tire and vehicle
classification, significantly advancing the state of traffic monitoring technology.
