Cost Effective Sensor Package for Road Monitoring

2019

Master's thesis Mechatronics MAS500 - University of Agder 2019 The companies responsible for road maintenance are expecting an increase in number of roads.It is of interest to find effective solutions to adapt to the increased work in road maintenance.Most of the road monitoring has to be done manually. This thesis is aimed to do research onhow road inspection effectively can be monitored at a low cost. The goal is to create and im-plement a sensor package in a vehicular platform. The group has provided concepts, produceda sensor package for testing, software development and tested chosen areas of interest.Traffic sign recognition, lane mark quality, vibration measurements and light intensi…
