Autonomous Road Inspection Device (ARID) Hardware enabled by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning
Having clear sight of your road condition is crucial to reaching your sustainability business goals.
SmartRoad uses ECS’s ARID that is mounted on LDVs or haul trucks that travel on the road network.
Using AI tools and Machine Learning processes, defects are recognised and scored. The images
and attributable data is made available on a Dashboard that provides performance analytics to
monitor and report on road conditions.

What does SmartRoad give you?

Performance Dashboards and Management Portals
SmartRoad has a dynamic Cloud-based Road Performance Dashboard showing key road
performance analytics. The Dashboard has geospatial visualization of road conditions together
with photographs of road conditions and dustiness levels — providing conclusive evidence on
road condition trends to enable better decision-making for road maintenance teams.
