These algorithms are validated by the biggest names in the automobile industry. Michelin, noc experts for more than a century, provides its expertise through algorithms developed specifically for passenger tires and allowing millimeter precision in measuring wear. Artificial intelligence thus makes it possible to improve the quality of inspection. with a level of reliability that increases by 20 points compared to current practices.
