Case Study: Bridgestone Corporation achieves safer, more efficient tire management with Microsoft Azure

Bridgestone enhances safe, efficient mobility with Tirematics using Microsoft Azure

Bridgestone Corporation, a global tire leader, needed a more efficient way to monitor tire health and reduce the time and errors involved in manual inspections. Working with Microsoft Azure, the company developed Tirematics, a digital solution that uses tire sensor data to detect early signs of tire issues and support safer, smarter mobility.

Microsoft Azure powered Tirematics with services including Azure IoT Hub, Azure Data Lake Store, Azure Stream Analytics, and Azure Event Hubs. The solution sends real-time alerts to managers when abnormalities are detected, helping Bridgestone reduce inspection workloads, prevent operating issues, and speed response times; in field tests with Hato Bus, managers could act more quickly on tire problems.
