A groundbreaking Autonomous Road Repair System (ARRES) has been developed by Robotiz3d, Hertfordshire City Council, and the University of Liverpool.

This system comprises three innovative technologies aimed at revolutionizing road maintenance.

The centerpiece of ARRES is the ARRES Eye technology, strategically installed on various vehicles like trucks and maintenance cars.

These vehicles traverse city streets, employing advanced imaging to detect road surface issues such as cracks and potholes.

ARRES Eye accurately identifies the location and severity of damage, storing the data in a central database for efficient administration, Tech Times has reported.

Complementing ARRES Eye is ARRES Prevent, an AI-powered robotic vehicle resembling a van.

This autonomous vehicle patrols highways day and night, utilizing waypoint navigation and remote control features for safety.

Equipped with cutting-edge materials, ARRES Prevent swiftly repairs minor cracks and prevents sinkhole formation by sealing surfaces against water infiltration.

Real-time repair data ensures effective maintenance and quality control.
