NYU graduates create street quality measurement device using a Raspberry Pi

Varun Adibhatla and Graham Henke are two graduates from New York University. They have developed a system which records the condition of roads and then generates a clickable, interactive map that displays the position of road imperfections (such as pot holes etc) together with a photograph of the spot in question. The system is called SQUID (Street Quality Identification Device) and uses a Raspberry PI and accelerometer mounted on the back of a car to record data points. It’s the first product and service from their company Argo. You can read more over at SIlive.com.
