Abstract

The main problem in developing countries is the maintenance of the road. The maintenance includes the potholes and humps on the road which is the major cause of the road accidents. Another main reason for road accidents is the decrease in the pressure level of the tyre. This paper deals with the detection and notification of potholes and humps on roads and to measure the pressure of the tyre using raspberry pi as the controller. The ultrasonic sensor is used to detect the potholes on roads, it is detected based on the difference in the time duration of the signal transmitted and received. The pressure sensor is used to measure the pressure of the tyre and if the pressure level comes below the indicated level then it is notified through the buzzer. And the presence of the pothole is notified to the government officials automatically through cloud network. This project is designed to reduce the road accidents.
