Automated Path Tracking and Mapping for Economical, Real-Time, and Knowledge Based Roller Control in Pavement Compaction Operations: Phase II: Prototyping and Validation
Based on the algorithm developed in Phase I, the objective is to prototype the system, validate it in laboratory and operational environments, and improve the technique based on the validation outcomes to make it technology proven. If successful, the outcome of this research will help state DOT pavement management offices better monitor and control the quality of the pavement operations undertaken by contractors. It addresses the issues in places where GPS signal could be a problem to the existing IC devices. Given the low cost, the proposed technology has higher promise for market penetration.
