Abstract:
It is described a system and method to monitor railway wheels, which includes obtaining images of the railway wheel by means of stereo cameras and performing a three-dimensional and two-dimensional model of the railway wheel by means of these images. This two-dimensional model is subjected to analysis of the profile of the railway wheel, comparing it with a two-dimensional model of an ideal wheel and thus measuring the effective wear of its profile. The three-dimensional model is subjected to analysis of the surface of the railway wheel, also comparing it with a three-dimensional model of an ideal wheel and thus measuring the effective wear of its surface.

Claim (Index 16):
The method to monitor railway wheels according to  claim 15 , wherein the measuring comprises the following processes:\n identification of a set of path points; computation of normal vectors; data association comparing points of the set of path points of the observed two-dimensional model with corresponding points along the theoretical two-dimensional model; and estimation of characteristics of the railway wheel, configured to use the corresponding points obtained from the data association to calculate geometric characteristics of the railway wheel.
