Smart IOT Based Pothole Detection and Filling System

In most developing nations, a failure to maintain the current road infrastructure frequently results in the growth of potholes, cracks, etc. One of the difficulties in preventing accidents is dealing with excessive traffic. The foundation of our project is the ability to spot the potholes and fix them in two layers to prevent accidents. Additionally, the device keeps track of potholes and reduces labor expenses. The proposal describes an Internet-of-Things platform using basic ultrasonic sensor, a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, a camera module for the Raspberry Pi 5MP and a mobile phone with Wi-Fi access. Our strategy is to fix the potholes in two layers after the detection phase is complete. Plastic trash will be used in the first layer so that it can be recycled, and the concrete layer of the road material will fill the pothole in the second layer. This filling allowed the plastic waste to be handled more effectively. The governments and road maintenance authorities have access to the information stored in the system. The suggested solution provides local authorities with real-time, objective data regarding the condition of a city's roadways a specific area so they can take further action.
