1. INTRODUCTION
Wheel alignment for car’s tyre plays an important role in ensuring the safety of a car on the road.
Normally, a car owner will go to car workshop to check on the wheel alignment. It is known that car’s wheel
alignment can be monitored, adjusted and fixed inside the appointed car workshop. Conventional wheel
alignment system is big, bulky and expensive. Furthermore, the driver needs to travel to workshop and the
workshop normally operates during office hours.
To date, there are few methods in wheel alignment system including calibration using charge
coupled device (CCD) [1]-[3] and 3D alignment [4], [5]. CCD device is known for its wheel alignment
system using camera calibration and laser triangulation [1]. The arrangement is to achieve an accurate 3-D
reconstruction of the wheel rim. Other method is vison- based comprises of machine vision and 3D vision
with computer vision [6]-[8]. The later techniques is supported using an image acquisition system and camera
calibration. All these techniques were adopted aiming to resolve the alignment of the wheels. However, the
measurement techniques can be considered as big and bulky, not user friendly.
Hence, the wheel alignment monitoring system needs to be designed with functioning architecture
system. This problem is potentially solved by using communication protocol between sensors,
microcontroller and mobile phone that suit the functioning architecture system for wheel alignment which
gives the user awareness on early detection of wheel misalignment. Internet of things (IoT) is adopted and

potentially solved the issue since this method can be seen from any type applications [9] either for home [10]
or vehicle security system [11]. Furthermore, the system can suit the functioning architecture system for
wheel alignment. This alternative is possible for the car’s driver to monitor the condition of the tyre whether
it is aligned or misaligned to ensure the car’s safety. In addition, user’s wheel alignment monitoring system-
based IoT is able to produce light and portable device for user to detect the tyre alignment inspection using
smartphone. Although some google applications related to wheel alignment are available at Google playstore,
there is no explanation or description on how the communication and system integration with sensors and its
mobile application.
The significance of this study is to establish new method to measure wheel alignment by using time
of flight/triangulation concept applied to ultrasonic/laser [12]-[14]. Apart from that, the new method can be
applied into industrial application by implementing the graphical user interface (GUI) attached to the system
thus reducing number of car accidents globally. Calculation for the best angle and position of
transmitter/receiver is obtained based on the experiment [12]. The relationship between angle and position of
transmitter/receiver is expected to be known. The application of wireless communication technology using
TCP/IP communication protocol is introduced to replace the wired communication for easy access in any
field mostly in electronic devices.
This paper presents the development of IoT for wheel alignment monitoring system that is light and
portable as well as user friendly. This development is equipped with communication protocol between
sensors, microcontroller and mobile phone that suit with the functioning architecture system for wheel
alignment. The concept of IoT for the wheel alignment provides an illustration of the model to elucidate the
communication modules and the system architecture which could be applicable to any other applications.
Finally, the product of the idea is deliberated in result and discussion section. The conclusion of this work is
presented at the last section of this paper.
2. METHOD FOR WHEEL ALIGNMENT MONITORING SYSTEM
In this work, IoT is of interest because the technique of connecting everyday physical objects to the
existing internet infrastructure [15]. Several works for ICT-based covers vehicle detection, road detection,
lane detection, pedestrian detection, drowsiness detection and collison avoidances [16]. However, the current
situation for the condition of a car has not been dictated for the road safety requirements. This has movitate
the author to apply the IoT technique for the wheel alignment for the safety purposes. To illustrate, Figure 1
depicts an illustration of the model with the communication modules-microcontroller/microprocessor unit
(MCU) and the system architecture respectively. There are four pairs of receivers/transmitters module which
are responsible to measure the wheel alignment. Both infra-red receiver and transmitter are connected to
ARM Cortex or AVR micro-controller that responsible for controlling the wheel alignment system. The
micro-controller is programmed to transmit infra-red using infra-red transmitter component and receive infra-
red value using infra-red receiver component [8], [17], [18]. Then, the readings and measurements were
transferred to the mobile application (Android/IOS) using wireless communication protocol (TCP/IP).
Furthermore, TCP/IP communication protocol has been selected due to its flexibility, simplicity, scalability,
and maintainability as well as cost effective [19], [20]. In addition, user-friendly and interactively graphical
user interface (GUI) also assist the user with all the readings and measurements.

As far as data is concerned, the design variables (controlled factors) include reflection angles from
light, infra-red transmitters and receivers, camber, caster, toe, mounting position of sensors, amount of infra-
red received and position between transmitters and receivers. The uncontrolled factors are noise, assembly
error and sensors manufacturing errors. In this set up, infra-red receivers/transmitters were used to adopt the
time of flight theory and modification on alignment calculation reading was made on calculation formula
[21]-[23].
To implement the TCP/IP communication protocol, some requirements are considered. The use of
hardware is required to control and to obtain reflection reading based on different angles, to connect base
hardware with portable and viewable device and thus, we can have a product which is small in size. Hence,
an analysis can be produced to meet the requirement.
On the software point of view, a system needs to be implemented on base hardware, which in this
case is the Spark Core microcontroller. The system was programmed on the Spark Core microcontroller.
Then it will control the logic flow to capture the reflection reading from the sensors, store inside the
microcontroller and then passed to the viewable device. In order to make the product portable, small and low
cost; the microcontroller is also being programmed to add the communication module between
microcontroller and viewable device i.e. smart phone using TCP/IP communication protocol. The smart
phone is chosen due to ease of access and capabilities to support various kinds of software modules and
interactive graphical user interface (GUI). The TCP/IP communication protocol is chosen due to its reliability
and performance compared to UDP protocol and availability of the open source libraries [24], [25].
Figure 2 elucidates the diagram of the wheel alignment system architecture for mobile application,
ARM Cortex and the infra-red. ARM Cortex is the MCU for the system architecture. All of the data were
stored inside the database and ready to be queried by the mobile application. The responsibility of the TCP
server is to attend to any request from the TCP client which is the mobile application; and to send the data
requested by the TCP client using TCP/IP (wireless) communication protocol.
Figure 2. Diagram of wheel alignment system architecture
In the mobile application module, the data received from ARM Cortex requested by TCP Client
were stored inside the database. The user interface sub-module will query real-time data from database and
update to the graphical user interface to be seen by user. Also, there are an added notification processed to
send notification to the user by email or short messaging service.
Figure 3 refers to software class diagram on microcontroller/microprocessor (ARM Cortex)
application to operate and start up the Wi-Fi integrated circuit to detect the hot spot from the mobile device.
The AlignmentProcess module will keep requested alignment reading from the IRReceiver using
startIRReceiver function and commanding IRTransmitter to transmit pulse simultaneously. From the data
received, the AlignmentProcess (control module) will send the date to CalcProcess module to calculate the
alignment measurement. After the calculation process finished, the results will be stored inside the database
using DBCoreController module.
The DBCoreController module handle the data extracted from the calculation to store inside a
database. DbWriter function is to write the data into the database file while dbReader is to read the data from
database file and sent to any software client requester. BackupData function transfers accumulated data in
database to a much larger database storage as requested by the software client through TCPServer.
The IOController module handle the interaction of I/O ports at the microcontroller. Each I/O pins
have their own unique ID and it is very important for the other modules to identify which set of receivers or
transmitters involved in the calculation. The TCPServer module responsible to initialize module for the
server part in Client-Server Architecture for the future use. All these software modules aid the hardware
integration to realize the parameters of the camber wheel alignment.

As shown in Figure 4, the diagram exhibits the software class diagram for the mobile application.
This software development involves the overall control system and algorithm. Thus, when TCPClient module
requests data in every one second delay from the TCPServer module in Figure 3, the data was controlled by
AlignmentMonitoring module. The data received then will be stored inside the database by DBController
module. The UserInterface module will always query for updated data inside the database and update the
data to UserDashboard, GraphicalCar and LoginPage modules. The basic algorithm of the client side of the
wheel alignment monitoring system using Android application and server side is coded with C++ compiled
binary program.
Figure 4. Software class diagram on mobile application
User interface for Android mobile application is user friendly and well-defined. The GraphicalCar
module in Figure 4 responsible to view a car diagram from top view to make it understandable in the user's
perspective. It consists a picture of a car with four tyres and rectangle view on each of the tyre representing
the alignment condition and the value of the infrared alignment parameter. The alignment text and value of
alignment parameter will be changed in real-time depends on the value received by the TCPClient module
and microcontroller reading on the alignment.

Figure 5. Prototype set-up for the wheel, GUI and mobile applications
Figure 6 displays the result for design for the mobile application (Android/IOS) graphical user
interface (GUI) module. In the GUI interface, there is graphical car with 4 wheel images button to provide
user friendly experience to the user. Once the wheel image button is clicked, a pop-up will show the
alignment information. On the right side there will be an additional information of user and the vehicle. User
can use email or SMS to send notification when the alignment need to be adjusted. Vehicle information such
as model, colour, year of manufacture and engine capacity can also be added to Car Info. This can be useful
in future prospect when all the vehicles information or updates are centralized globally.
Figure 6. Overview of graphical user interface on mobile application
As mentioned previously, the connection between Android mobile application and microcontroller
application were prepared wirelessly. The Android mobile application is using Samsung Galaxy Note 2 as its
mobile application medium. The TCP client module will start to search for TCP server designated IP and
port. The programming for the TCP server designated IP and port were coded with the Java code. Once the
TCP client connected with the TCP server application on the microcontroller, the UserInterface module were
established, the graphical view of car, alignment condition and alignment infra-red value will appear as
displayed in Figure 7.

As mentioned previously, the system has been tested to suit the functioning architecture system for
the wheel alignment. Figures 7, 8 and 9 are referred to the recorded work on the real tyre during the
experimental set up of integrating wheel alignment monitoring system using microcontroller with the
Android mobile application.
As exhibited in Figure 7, the Spark Core microcontroller circuit on the breadboard is powered by
normal power bank to produce 5 V and 1 A current rating. After the microcontroller is turned on, the light
indicator on Spark Core will turn from green to blue colour indicating that the module is already connected
on the designated Wi-Fi network, in this case the smart phone is used for the tethering mobile hotspot to
allow Wi-Fi connection from the microcontroller. Hence, both microcontroller and Android mobile
application were in the same Wi-Fi network. In the background, TCP Server of the microcontroller
application is already running and attending to connection from the TCP client from the mobile application.
In this set up, the breadboard with microcontroller is placed inside the dashboard of car.
Figure 8 indicates the two pair of wires from the breadboard both connected with infra-red
transmitter and infra-red receiver respectively. Both infra-red transmitter and infra-red receiver were installed
throughout the car from the dashboard to the front left side of the tyre location. With the assistance of the
appointed mechanic, the wire was installed from the dashboard to the mounting location by using the space
on the hole below the dashboard.
Figure 9 shows the pair of wire as discussed in Figure 8 is coupled with a pair of infra-red
transmitter and receiver. At this point, the transmitter and receiver is mounted near to the absorber mount.
Then, the angle and distance parameter are measured manually. The design of the mounting specifically to
mount these infra-red transmitter and receiver can further be improved in the future.

INTRODUCTION Wheel alignment for car’s tyre plays an important role in ensuring the safety of a car on the road. Normally, a car owner will go to car workshop to check on the wheel alignment. It is known that car’s wheel alignment can be monitored, adjusted and fixed inside the appointed car workshop. Conventional wheel alignment system is big, bulky and expensive. Furthermore, the driver needs to travel to workshop and the workshop normally operates during office hours. To date, there are few methods in wheel alignment system including calibration using charge coupled device (CCD) [1]-[3] and 3D alignment [4], [5]. CCD device is known for its wheel alignment system using camera calibration and laser triangulation [1]. The arrangement is to achieve an accurate 3-D reconstruction of the wheel rim. Other method is vison- based comprises of machine vision and 3D vision with computer vision [6]-[8]. The later techniques is supported using an image acquisition system and camera calibration. All these techniques were adopted aiming to resolve the alignment of the wheels. However, the measurement techniques can be considered as big and bulky, not user friendly. Hence, the wheel alignment monitoring system needs to be designed with functioning architecture system. This problem is potentially solved by using communication protocol between sensors, microcontroller and mobile phone that suit the functioning architecture system for wheel alignment which gives the user awareness on early detection of wheel misalignment. Internet of things (IoT) is adopted and
  • 2.  ISSN: 2088-8708 Int J Elec & Comp Eng, Vol. 11, No. 5, October 2021 : 3809 - 3817 3810 potentially solved the issue since this method can be seen from any type applications [9] either for home [10] or vehicle security system [11]. Furthermore, the system can suit the functioning architecture system for wheel alignment. This alternative is possible for the car’s driver to monitor the condition of the tyre whether it is aligned or misaligned to ensure the car’s safety. In addition, user’s wheel alignment monitoring system- based IoT is able to produce light and portable device for user to detect the tyre alignment inspection using smartphone. Although some google applications related to wheel alignment are available at Google playstore, there is no explanation or description on how the communication and system integration with sensors and its mobile application. The significance of this study is to establish new method to measure wheel alignment by using time of flight/triangulation concept applied to ultrasonic/laser [12]-[14]. Apart from that, the new method can be applied into industrial application by implementing the graphical user interface (GUI) attached to the system thus reducing number of car accidents globally. Calculation for the best angle and position of transmitter/receiver is obtained based on the experiment [12]. The relationship between angle and position of transmitter/receiver is expected to be known. The application of wireless communication technology using TCP/IP communication protocol is introduced to replace the wired communication for easy access in any field mostly in electronic devices. This paper presents the development of IoT for wheel alignment monitoring system that is light and portable as well as user friendly. This development is equipped with communication protocol between sensors, microcontroller and mobile phone that suit with the functioning architecture system for wheel alignment. The concept of IoT for the wheel alignment provides an illustration of the model to elucidate the communication modules and the system architecture which could be applicable to any other applications. Finally, the product of the idea is deliberated in result and discussion section. The conclusion of this work is presented at the last section of this paper. 2. METHOD FOR WHEEL ALIGNMENT MONITORING SYSTEM In this work, IoT is of interest because the technique of connecting everyday physical objects to the existing internet infrastructure [15]. Several works for ICT-based covers vehicle detection, road detection, lane detection, pedestrian detection, drowsiness detection and collison avoidances [16]. However, the current situation for the condition of a car has not been dictated for the road safety requirements. This has movitate the author to apply the IoT technique for the wheel alignment for the safety purposes. To illustrate, Figure 1 depicts an illustration of the model with the communication modules-microcontroller/microprocessor unit (MCU) and the system architecture respectively. There are four pairs of receivers/transmitters module which are responsible to measure the wheel alignment. Both infra-red receiver and transmitter are connected to ARM Cortex or AVR micro-controller that responsible for controlling the wheel alignment system. The micro-controller is programmed to transmit infra-red using infra-red transmitter component and receive infra- red value using infra-red receiver component [8], [17], [18]. Then, the readings and measurements were transferred to the mobile application (Android/IOS) using wireless communication protocol (TCP/IP). Furthermore, TCP/IP communication protocol has been selected due to its flexibility, simplicity, scalability, and maintainability as well as cost effective [19], [20]. In addition, user-friendly and interactively graphical user interface (GUI) also assist the user with all the readings and measurements. Figure 1. Illustration of wheel alignment system
  • 3. Int J Elec & Comp Eng ISSN: 2088-8708  IoT for wheel alignment monitoring system (Mohamad Hadi Sulaiman) 3811 As far as data is concerned, the design variables (controlled factors) include reflection angles from light, infra-red transmitters and receivers, camber, caster, toe, mounting position of sensors, amount of infra- red received and position between transmitters and receivers. The uncontrolled factors are noise, assembly error and sensors manufacturing errors. In this set up, infra-red receivers/transmitters were used to adopt the time of flight theory and modification on alignment calculation reading was made on calculation formula [21]-[23]. To implement the TCP/IP communication protocol, some requirements are considered. The use of hardware is required to control and to obtain reflection reading based on different angles, to connect base hardware with portable and viewable device and thus, we can have a product which is small in size. Hence, an analysis can be produced to meet the requirement. On the software point of view, a system needs to be implemented on base hardware, which in this case is the Spark Core microcontroller. The system was programmed on the Spark Core microcontroller. Then it will control the logic flow to capture the reflection reading from the sensors, store inside the microcontroller and then passed to the viewable device. In order to make the product portable, small and low cost; the microcontroller is also being programmed to add the communication module between microcontroller and viewable device i.e. smart phone using TCP/IP communication protocol. The smart phone is chosen due to ease of access and capabilities to support various kinds of software modules and interactive graphical user interface (GUI). The TCP/IP communication protocol is chosen due to its reliability and performance compared to UDP protocol and availability of the open source libraries [24], [25]. Figure 2 elucidates the diagram of the wheel alignment system architecture for mobile application, ARM Cortex and the infra-red. ARM Cortex is the MCU for the system architecture. All of the data were stored inside the database and ready to be queried by the mobile application. The responsibility of the TCP server is to attend to any request from the TCP client which is the mobile application; and to send the data requested by the TCP client using TCP/IP (wireless) communication protocol. Figure 2. Diagram of wheel alignment system architecture In the mobile application module, the data received from ARM Cortex requested by TCP Client were stored inside the database. The user interface sub-module will query real-time data from database and update to the graphical user interface to be seen by user. Also, there are an added notification processed to send notification to the user by email or short messaging service. Figure 3 refers to software class diagram on microcontroller/microprocessor (ARM Cortex) application to operate and start up the Wi-Fi integrated circuit to detect the hot spot from the mobile device. The AlignmentProcess module will keep requested alignment reading from the IRReceiver using startIRReceiver function and commanding IRTransmitter to transmit pulse simultaneously. From the data received, the AlignmentProcess (control module) will send the date to CalcProcess module to calculate the alignment measurement. After the calculation process finished, the results will be stored inside the database using DBCoreController module. The DBCoreController module handle the data extracted from the calculation to store inside a database. DbWriter function is to write the data into the database file while dbReader is to read the data from database file and sent to any software client requester. BackupData function transfers accumulated data in database to a much larger database storage as requested by the software client through TCPServer. The IOController module handle the interaction of I/O ports at the microcontroller. Each I/O pins have their own unique ID and it is very important for the other modules to identify which set of receivers or transmitters involved in the calculation. The TCPServer module responsible to initialize module for the server part in Client-Server Architecture for the future use. All these software modules aid the hardware integration to realize the parameters of the camber wheel alignment.

Software class diagram on microcontroller/microprocessor application As shown in Figure 4, the diagram exhibits the software class diagram for the mobile application. This software development involves the overall control system and algorithm. Thus, when TCPClient module requests data in every one second delay from the TCPServer module in Figure 3, the data was controlled by AlignmentMonitoring module. The data received then will be stored inside the database by DBController module. The UserInterface module will always query for updated data inside the database and update the data to UserDashboard, GraphicalCar and LoginPage modules. The basic algorithm of the client side of the wheel alignment monitoring system using Android application and server side is coded with C++ compiled binary program. Figure 4. Software class diagram on mobile application User interface for Android mobile application is user friendly and well-defined. The GraphicalCar module in Figure 4 responsible to view a car diagram from top view to make it understandable in the user's perspective. It consists a picture of a car with four tyres and rectangle view on each of the tyre representing the alignment condition and the value of the infrared alignment parameter. The alignment text and value of alignment parameter will be changed in real-time depends on the value received by the TCPClient module and microcontroller reading on the alignment.

Figures 7, 8 and 9 are referred to the recorded work on the real tyre during the experimental set up of integrating wheel alignment monitoring system using microcontroller with the Android mobile application. As exhibited in Figure 7, the Spark Core microcontroller circuit on the breadboard is powered by normal power bank to produce 5 V and 1 A current rating. After the microcontroller is turned on, the light indicator on Spark Core will turn from green to blue colour indicating that the module is already connected on the designated Wi-Fi network, in this case the smart phone is used for the tethering mobile hotspot to allow Wi-Fi connection from the microcontroller. Hence, both microcontroller and Android mobile application were in the same Wi-Fi network. In the background, TCP Server of the microcontroller application is already running and attending to connection from the TCP client from the mobile application. In this set up, the breadboard with microcontroller is placed inside the dashboard of car. Figure 8 indicates the two pair of wires from the breadboard both connected with infra-red transmitter and infra-red receiver respectively. Both infra-red transmitter and infra-red receiver were installed throughout the car from the dashboard to the front left side of the tyre location. With the assistance of the appointed mechanic, the wire was installed from the dashboard to the mounting location by using the space on the hole below the dashboard. Figure 9 shows the pair of wire as discussed in Figure 8 is coupled with a pair of infra-red transmitter and receiver. At this point, the transmitter and receiver is mounted near to the absorber mount. Then, the angle and distance parameter are measured manually. The design of the mounting specifically to mount these infra-red transmitter and receiver can further be improved in the future. Figure 7.
