SYSTEM FOR DETECTING, LOCALIZING, AND SHARING POTHOLES

A method for detecting, localizing, reporting, and displaying potholes on a road, in a system comprising a sensing device mounted on a vehicle, a cartography display, and a control unit, the sensing device comprising at least a radar device, the method comprising scanning with the sensing device an area of interest in front of and ahead the vehicle, the area of interest including at least a surface of a road traveled by the vehicle, the sensing device outputting a data flow; identifying first candidate potholes formed on the road surface; further processing the data flow to find out first confirmed potholes among the first candidates potholes; allocating a geolocation to each of the first confirmed potholes; and displaying, on the cartography display, first potholes with their localization superimposed on the map.
