Problem
Existing methods for assessing road conditions and predicting slipperiness are often costly, labor-intensive, and lack real-time data, hindering proactive road safety measures. Detecting hazards like black ice, which is difficult to see, poses a significant challenge for drivers and road maintenance crews. Inefficient monitoring leads to delayed responses and increased risks of accidents, especially in adverse weather conditions.
Solution
MoveAWheeL provides an AI-powered road infrastructure solution that uses active acoustic sensors to accurately measure road surface conditions in real-time. The non-contact sensor technology identifies risk factors such as black ice by analyzing the acoustic impedance of road surface materials. Data is transmitted to the EG-Way comprehensive road information service, providing actionable insights to drivers, navigation systems, road managers, and government agencies. The system enables predictive analytics for vehicle control and optimized road maintenance, significantly reducing construction costs compared to existing methods.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes government agencies, road managers, navigation system providers, and drivers seeking enhanced road safety and real-time road condition information.
