159 ARRB Group has introduced the latest addition to the Hawkeye 1000 series, the Hawkeye 1000 DUO.

The Hawkeye 1000 portable range was previously limited to a standalone laser profiler and a separate video imaging system. With recent advancements in computer hardware and an intense in-house development programme, ARRB Systems is now releasing the Hawkeye 1000 DUO which successfully combines the benefits of the two systems.

Consisting of a single or dual laser profiler and a single dashboard-mounted video camera, the Hawkeye 1000 DUO is capable of collecting longitudinal profile, roughness and macro-texture and providing fully linked video images, at highway speeds.

It can be used in rural and urban locations, and can offer positioning and measurement of road and asset inventory; verify site conditions (by visual methods in post-processing) when large variations in data are detected by the profiler; quality assessments and road safety engineering assessments.

    Researchers at Nottingham Trent University in the UK are developing smart scanning technology using existing cameras to detect early signs of pothole development The technology scans roads for ravelling - the loss of aggregates from the asphalt which leads to potholes and cracks. Combined with 2D and 3D scanners on a pavement monitoring vehicle, a computer vision algorithm can examine the road with accuracy at traffic speed during day or night. The system works by detecting different textures of th
