Why It Matters
One out of every five miles of U.S. highway pavement is in poor condition, and the maintenance backlog has surpassed $420 billion. Traditional road surveys are costly, slow, and limited-leaving agencies with outdated information and inefficient repair planning.
Our Solution
Leveraging Connected Vehicles
Connected Vehicles* (CVs) are at the core of i-Probe technology. With i-Probe, everyday production vehicles driven by regular road users become real-time data sources that help monitor road conditions continuously, more efficiently, and economically.
*Connected Vehicles are vehicles that use V2X (vehicle-to-everything) bidirectional communications to address road conditions, safety, system efficiency, or mobility on roadways.
Focus on factory-installed sensors
In partnership with Honda Motors, we have developed our technology to leverage the factory-installed sensors already built into later-model production vehicles (CVs)-no aftermarket equipment required.
With only onboard sensors, i-Probe can capture pavement conditions and translate this data into pavement distress mapping and insights for better road management.
How It Works
Connected Vehicles collect road roughness data either through crowdsourcing or through a single-vehicle service. The roughness data is then processed under i-Probe's special algorithm to identify pavement distresses and severity. The outputs are then mapped and tabulated in a cloud dashboard.
