Quality of the transport system and planning is essential in the fast-paced modern day where the use of road networks has expanded alongside their physical limits and variations. Simultaneously, continuous usage, harsh climatic conditions, and excavation works may be responsible for the degradation in road quality. This can further lead to increased accidents, vehicular damages, and increased fuel consumption. At such a time, road safety becomes a concern for all users.

 

Vibragauge aims to perform the crucial task of monitoring road quality with high efficiency as opposed to traditional systems. The device can be used with any type of vehicle to collect and transmit data on road quality to a cloud platform where analytics may be performed for assessment and classification of its condition.

 

The analyzed information will be available to view on a mobile application, such that drivers get real-time sound or voice alerts. These will essentially warn them of imminent degradation in the road network including, yet not limited to, large potholes. The information can also be transferred to the responsible authority for timely automatic identification and quick repair wherever required.
