Our efforts were featured in the June 14, 2023 issue of Kentsu Shimbun (Japan's leading newspaper in the construction industry) in an article titled "Highly Accurate Road Inspections with Smartphones.
WE HAVE NOW OVERCOME THE WEAKNESS OF USING A SIMPLE DEVICE AND SUCCEEDED IN QUANTITATIVELY CALCULATING "RUTTED ROAD SURFACE" FROM 2D ROAD SURFACE IMAGES CAPTURED BY AN IN-VEHICLE CAMERA. BASED ON THE RESULTS OF THIS RESEARCH, GLOCAL-EYEZ BECAME THE FIRST TECHNOLOGY USING AN IN-VEHICLE CAMERA TO PARTICIPATE IN PERFORMANCE TESTS IN 2023 IN THE FIELD OF "RUT CLEARANCE". WE WILL WORK ON FURTHER TECHNOLOGICAL IMPROVEMENT AND R&D OF "GLOCAL-EYEZ" TOWARD THE GOALS OF "FROM SIMPLE EQUIPMENT TO RIGOROUS RESULTS" AND "FROM PATROL DATA TO INSPECTIONS," AND PROMOTE THE ADVANCEMENT AND EFFICIENCY OF ROAD MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT THROUGH SOCIAL IMPLEMENTATION OF "GLOCAL-EYEZ.
