About the research

Objective
This project focused on building a field prototype of a video-based road condition sensor and extending its function such that both the current condition and trend could be measured with high accuracy. The limitations of the system were also investigated, but Sweden was very pleased with the results of this effort overall. The system performed very well, matching picture to condition approximately 98% of the time.This project focused on building a field prototype of a video-based road condition sensor and extending its function such that both the current condition and trend could be measured with high accuracy.
