In a groundbreaking development for road maintenance, a pioneering pothole-preventing robot is set for its maiden road trial in Hertfordshire, UK. Developed by Robotiz3d and University of Liverpool experts, this innovative autonomous system is stepping out of the lab for the first time. Dubbed the Autonomous Road Repair System (ARRES) Prevent, this state-of-the-art robot utilizes Artificial Intelligence (AI) to detect and assess road defects like cracks and potholes. With its autonomous capabilities, it promptly addresses these issues by filling cracks, preventing water damage, and halting pothole formation.
