In this modern era, land transports are increasing dramatically. Moreover, self-driven car or the Advanced Driving Assistance System (ADAS) is now the public demand. For these types of cars, road conditions detection is mandatory. On the
other hand, compared to the number of vehicles, to increase the number of roads is not possible. Software is the only alternative solution. Road Conditions Detection system will help to solve the issues. For solving this problem, Image processing, and
machine learning have been applied to develop a project namely, Detection of Road Conditions Using Image Processing and Machine Learning Techniques for Situation Awareness. Many issues could be considered for road conditions but the main focus will be on the detection of potholes, Maintenance sings and lane. Image processing and machine learning have been combined for our system for detecting in real-time. Machine learning has been applied to maintains signs detection. Image processing has been applied for detecting lanes and potholes. The detection system will provide a lane mark with colored lines, the pothole will be a marker with a red rectangular box and for a road Maintenance sign, the system will also provide information of aintenance sign as maintenance sing is detected. By observing all these scenarios, the driver will realize the road condition. On the other hand situation awareness is the ability to perceive information from it’s surrounding, takes decisions based on perceived information and it makes decision based on prediction
