Patent Images
1. A tire recognition method comprising:
- receiving an image of a round tire using a camera of a mobile device;
converting, by the mobile device, the image of the round tire included in the image into a linear image of the round tire by;
extracting, by the mobile device, the image of the round tire from the received image; and
obtaining, by the mobile device, the linear image of the round tire by rearranging linear images in a same direction, wherein each of the linear images corresponds to at least one line that is perpendicular to a circumference of a circle or an oval corresponding to a wheel in the tire;
extracting, by the mobile device, an area of a character to be recognized from the linear image;
determining, by the mobile device, a character for learning, which is most similar to the extracted area of the character to be recognized from among a pre-constructed group of characters for learning, as a character in the area of the character to be recognized; and
retrieving, by the mobile device, information associated with the round tire based on the character for learning.

Abstract
Provided are a method and an apparatus for recognizing a tire by using an image of a tire captured by using a terminal. The apparatus recognizes a tire by converting an image of a round tire included in the image into a linear image, extracting an area of a character to be recognized from the linear image, and determining a character for learning, which is most similar to the extracted area of the character to be recognized from among a pre-constructed group of characters for learning, as a character in the area of the character to be recognized.
