anyline, the world leader in mobile data capture and artificial intelligence, today launches the first tire tread depth scanner that works on any smartphone or mobile device with a digital camera. This software solution, which accurately and reliably measures tire tread depth, is set to revolutionize the automotive industry. The product will be unveiled at a press conference to be held on November 2 at SEMA Show 2022 Vegas.

Measuring tire tread wear currently requires specially designed analog or digital tools that technicians use to check the grooves of each tire. This particularly slow and tedious process leaves room for data entry errors and inconsistent measurements, costing tire retailers hundreds of millions of euros each year, in addition to risking endangering the driver safety.

Anyline’s revolutionary tread scanner works simply by pointing the camera of any standard mobile device at the tread to be measured. Using state-of-the-art computer vision and artificial intelligence technology, a 3D model of each tread is created, giving an accurate digital measurement, which can be instantly stored and shared with customers. This software solution can be integrated into mobile applications intended for professionals or consumers. Tire technicians and customers can scan tire treads without special training and get consistent, objective results.

The digital transition has revolutionized automotive safety standards over the past decade, but tire maintenance remains stubbornly anchored in the analog age, says Lukas Kinigadner, CEO and co-founder of Anyline. The consequences of this situation are significant. According to the NHTSA (National Highway Safety Administration), there have been more than 11,000 crashes on American roads in 2021 which are the direct consequence of faulty tires. At Anyline, we are replacing obsolete analog measurement processes with digital data capture to make tire inspections easier and faster, but also safer for motorists.

Anyline entered the automotive market in 2020 with the launch of the first DOT/TIN tire scanner. This solution created in partnership with Discount Tirethe world’s largest independent tire and rim retailer, has enabled their technicians to digitally capture vital tire data in seconds, with dramatically increased accuracy.

We are excited to hear about the next developments from Anyline as they continue to push the boundaries of what can be done in terms of mobile data capture technology, said Tom Williams, Chief Experience Officer at Discount Tire.

Anyline is ready to apply its mobile measurement technology to use cases in the automotive sector, as well as other sectors such as retail, logistics and healthcare. By allowing users to measure and read every type of data with a simple mobile device, Anyline seamlessly connects the physical and digital worlds and makes datafication possible for everyone.
