Abstract
Monitoring the road condition has gain significant importance in last few years. There are various reasons for extending research in this field: first, it will ensure safety and comfort to various road users; second, smooth roads will lead to less vehicle damage and government investment; third, the availability of low cost sensors in Smartphones; fourth, the rapid increase in the rate of Smartphone users. Thus, it is necessary to develop systems which are able to detect road conditions using sensors present in Smartphone. Several methods have been proposed towards addressing this problem. This paper reviews the various road conditions detection systems appeared in the literature. This paper also provides the areas which can be further modified to develop a more robust system.
