Aperia’s machine learning to guide tire maintenance

Avatar photo

Aperia Technologies’ new Halo Connect is using the power of machine learning to help fleets “virtually eliminate” unplanned tire-related downtime.

The system builds on the company’s Halo tire inflator, incorporating a retrofittable sensor that feeds data into Aperia’s analytics platform.

Tire-related issues are ranked by severity and combined with maintenance recommendations, helping to prevent failures associated with leaks and under-inflation.

The algorithms draw on about 1.5 billion km of existing on-road experience with the Halo system.

Dozens of fleets have been testing Halo Connect over the last six months. Full production is set for this fall.
