ROAD SURFACE

DETECTION

Our Road Surface Detection software, in collaboration with Tactile Mobility, enables vehicles to “feel” the road by collecting real-time road friction data via virtual sensors with unprecedented accuracy and availability. The software interprets and assigns the data to real-time road condition scenarios (dry, icy, wet) which is sent to the cloud and shared with trailing vehicles as a “heads up” to changing road conditions for enhanced vehicle safety and control.

The virtual sensors are created by AI and machine learning technologies, requiring no additional hardware or physical sensors.

Our Road Surface Detection Software was recognized with a 2023 CES Innovation Award and 2022 Automotive News PACEpilot Finalist award.

Key Benefits of Our Road Surface Detection Software

COVERS ALL ROAD CLASSES & DRIVING LEVELS
Our software solution provides insights across all road classes – from urban to freeway – and applies to all levels of driving from hands-on traditional driving to fully autonomous driving. Our software also increases vehicle safety and extends virtual line-of-sight, giving the vehicle a sense of “feel” with or without a human driver in the loop.

GENERATES DATA IN ANY DRIVING CONDITION
Virtual sensors are not influenced by visual interruptions such as fog, heavy rain, field of view, etc. They generate data in almost any driving condition, speed (including zero speed) and excitation.

CROWD-SOURCED DATA FOR INCREASED SAFETY
Our software feeds the creation of highly updated maps using vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) crowd sourcing of road surface information – enabling vehicles to be more aware of their environment, thus improving safety and traffic flow.
