  • Abstract:
  • Potholes are a severe challenge in road infrastructure, causing vehicle damage, increasing maintenance costs, and contributing to road accidents. Traditional pothole detection methods are manual, time-consuming, and lack efficiency. This paper explores artificial intelligence (AI)-based techniques for pothole detection and proposes an early warning system to mitigate potential hazards. A hybrid approach integrating computer vision (CNN-based deep learning models) and IoT-based vibration sensors is presented to enhance accuracy and real-time detection. Additionally, this research discusses edge computing, federated learning, and cloud-based frameworks for large-scale implementation. The proposed system demonstrates improved detection accuracy and responsiveness through experimental validation. Future enhancements, including 5G integration and self-learning AI models, are explored.
