Abstract |
Potholes and humps have been known to be a major nuisance in roadside transportation, especially in India. Due to the significant weather fluctuations we experience, these potholes evidently are more severe. Identification of these potholes and humps not only helps drivers to avoid accidents or vehicle damages, but also helps authorities to maintain roads. This paper discusses the mapping of Potholes and humps which assists the driver in avoiding potholes on the roads, by giving him prior warnings. If the driver is approaching a pothole or hump or driver may be warned in advanced regarding what road has how many potholes. Ultrasonic sensors are used to identify the potholes and humps and also to measure their depth and height, respectively. The proposed system captures the geographical location coordinates of the potholes and humps using a global positioning system receiver. The sensed-data includes pothole depth, height of hump, and geographic location, which is stored in the database. |
