    • Method and apparatus for checking tyres for vehicle wheels. A tyre to be checked is fed to a checking station. A sidewall of the tyre lies on a supporting portion of a rotating table. The supporting portion lies on a plane while the rotating table has a rotation axis perpendicular to the plane. A centring operation is carried out to align, in the plane, the rotation axis of the tyre with the rotation axis of the rotating table. The centring operation includes identification, in the plane, of the rotation axis of the tyre by: a) acquisition of an image of the tyre laid on the supporting portion of the rotating table; b) definition, in the acquired image, of a number of analysis directions intersecting at one selected central point; c) for each analysis direction: c1) definition, in the acquired image, of a number of potential axes of symmetry, perpendicular to the analysis direction; c2) calculation of a level of symmetry of the image with respect to each potential axis of symmetry, where the level of symmetry is indicative of the probability that the centre of the tyre is on the respective potential axis of symmetry; c3) determination of a probability distribution indicative of a variation of the level of symmetry along the analysis direction; d) determination of a centre of the tyre on the basis of a cumulative probability distribution obtained through a combination of the probability distributions calculated for the analysis directions; e) identification of the rotation axis of the tyre in an axis that passes through the determined centre and perpendicular to the plane.
