Potholes are a nuisance, especially in the developing world, and can often result in vehicle damage or physical harm to the vehicle occupants. Drivers can be warned to take evasive action if potholes are detected in real-time. Moreover, their location can be logged and shared to aid other drivers and road maintenance agencies. This paper proposes a vehicle-based computer vision approach to identify potholes using a window-mounted camera. Existing literature on pothole detection uses either theoretically constructed pothole models or footage taken from advantageous vantage points at low speed, rather than footage taken from within a vehicle at speed. The main objective of this system is to design a Pothole Detection System which assists the driver in avoiding potholes on the roads, by giving him prior warnings. Due to weather conditions, improper construction, and overloading of vehicles, the roads are getting damaged. The scope of this research work lies, where the irregularity of the road affects public people. This can be used in 4-wheelers, especially for ambulance drivers so that they could save many lives in time.
