Abstract: Road maintenance is the major issue in the society. Due to load carrying vehicles and rains creates potholes and humps on roads. Recognition of the Pavements anguish such as humps and potholes is used for drivers to control the accidents. Automatic and detection and notification of potholes and humps is already done. Now in this study we are automatically controlling speed of vehicle when there is any pothole or humps to decrease accidents. Here, we calculate the distance of the pothole and humps and notify the driver to divert the direction of vehicle and also speed we control of the vehicle at that area. Here, we use Pulse Width Modulation to control the speed. Android device is used to get the alerts so that the driver can either slow down or divert the vehicle direction. We use DC motor to represent vehicle and MAX232 to connect DC motor to ARM7. Ultrasonic sensors are used to detect pothole or hump on roads.
