A METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY DETECTING, BY MEANS OF COMPUTERIZED PROCESSING, OF THERMAL INFORMATION ABOUT A SURFACE OF A BRAKE DISC UNDER DYNAMIC OPERTING CONDITIONS

A method for automatically detecting, by means of computerized processing, information about temperature evolution and/or about location/distribution of hot spots and/or bands and/or zones on the surface of a brake disc under dynamic operating conditions. The method includes the steps of acquiring a plurality of digital images and/or a digital video, obtaining a representation of each of the digital images and/or digital video frames in the form of matrix data, on which to perform a processing by means of algorithms comprising image analysis or “computer vision” algorithms, to obtain and provide information about temperature evolution and/or about location/distribution of hot spots and/or bands and/or zones on the zone of interest of the surface of a brake disc.
