Survey of Road Bump and Intensity Detection algorithms using Smartphone Sensors

Abstract-As we know that the navigation through road to unknown places is critical, in the same way, condition of the road is important to reach a certain place within certain time. If we know the route source to destination but don’t know the condition of that road then although we try to reach that point at specific time we are unable to reach. This problem can be solved if we know the alternate route for that road as well as condition of that road. This survey paper tries to solve all these problems, so that user will not face any inconvenience while driving. The study of this paper discovers various kind of data we received to sensors from Smartphone’s under practical setting in which the Smartphone’s are placed in more accurate places and under accurate means inside a moving vehicle to evaluate its relationship with the actual road smoothness. Road smoothness (Quality) and Complexity analysis using Smartphone’s propose to utilize the GPS system and different sensors like accelerometer, magnetometer, etc. of phone, so we can analyze the road condition and upload this information on the central server so any application user can use this information during travelling.
