Abstract
This work describes the development of a embedded system to be installed on automotive vehicles, which is able to identify the geographic location of holes in the road. An accelerometer and a GPS receptor connected to a microcontroller are used to undertake such a task. A computer receives the data collected by the system and stores it for later analysis on road condition.
