    This paper presents a full chain to detect and photograph impacts from the infrastructure. This work is the result of the collaborative project InfraCall. It focuses on the protection of the crash cushions and barrier rails. The principle is to adapt on them sensors and to take a photo.

After having described the system, we present a costs benefits analysis based on a study of the accidentology in the suburbs of Paris.
