Abstract
The tyre includes a tyre tread configured so that, beyond a predetermined radial wear threshold, the tyre tread has a set of at least one wear indicator, including a so-called “sound” cavity arranged in a circumferential groove of the tyre tread. During the monitoring method, an acoustic signal that is able to include an acoustic footprint noise produced by the set during the running of the tyre on a ground beyond the predetermined threshold is detected by an acoustic sensor mounted on the vehicle, and information relating to the acoustic signal is emitted to a remote server not mounted on the motor vehicle.

20. A method for monitoring at least one tyre of at least one motor vehicle comprising a tyre tread, wherein the tyre tread is configured so that, beyond a predetermined radial wear threshold, the tyre tread has a set of at least one sound wear indicator, the method comprising the following steps:
-
detection by an acoustic sensor mounted on the vehicle of an acoustic signal able to comprise an acoustic footprint noise produced by the set during the running of the tyre on a ground beyond the predetermined radial wear threshold, emission, to a distant server not mounted on the motor vehicle, of information relating to the acoustic signal. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)

36. A computer program product embodying computer code that, when executed by a computer, implements a method for monitoring at least one tyre of at least one motor vehicle comprising a tyre tread, wherein the tyre tread is configured so that, beyond a predetermined radial wear threshold, the tyre tread has a set of at least one sound wear indicator, the method comprising:
-
detecting, by an acoustic sensor mounted on the vehicle, an acoustic signal able to include an acoustic footprint noise produced by the set during the running of the tyre on a ground beyond the predetermined radial wear threshold, emitting, to a distant server not mounted on the motor vehicle, information relating to the acoustic signal.

37. A computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable code instructions that, when executed by a computer, implements a method for monitoring at least one tyre of at least one motor vehicle comprising a tyre tread, wherein the tyre tread is configured so that, beyond a predetermined radial wear threshold, the tyre tread has a set of at least one sound wear indicator, the method comprising:
-
detecting, by an acoustic sensor mounted on the vehicle, an acoustic signal able to include an acoustic footprint noise produced by the set during the running of the tyre on a ground beyond the predetermined radial wear threshold, emitting, to a distant server not mounted on the motor vehicle, information relating to the acoustic signal. - View Dependent Claims (38)
