摘要

In the context of European road transport, where safety is paramount, this paper presents an innovative approach to road infrastructure management and maintenance, exploiting Fiber Optic Sensors (FOS) technology for asphalt-paved roads. The work integrates autonomous robotized solutions and modularization techniques, developing a real-time monitoring system using FOS embedded in the road wear layer. Extensive laboratory tests verified FOS parameters and performance, reporting a 100% success rate in surviving to asphalt realization process; functionality tests showcased real-time monitoring capabilities, detecting residual stress during the pavement realization. The already available results indicate the technology’s potential to revolutionize road maintenance, enhancing safety and minimizing maintenance costs, representing a significant stride toward proactive and efficient road infrastructure management.
