Real-Time Detection of Road Anomalies for Integration in Rider Assistance Systems
ICCK Transactions on Intelligent Systematics | Volume 3, Issue 1: 32-54, 2026 | DOI: 10.62762/TIS.2025.418469
Abstract
Road safety has become an increasingly important concern and the integration of Advanced Rider Assistance Systems and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems plays a crucial role in preventing accidents. This work proposes a computer vision pipeline to automatically detect hazardous road anomalies—loose gravel, potholes, and puddles—from a motorcycle-mounted camera, targeting real-time operation on embedded edge devices. A hybrid dataset of 28764 annotated images was created by combining real-world photos, Blender-rendered synthetic scenes, and AI-generated images to improve diversity and coverage. Multiple state-of-the-art object detectors were trained and benchmarked, including the YOLOv5/7... More >
