Transportation technology is becoming increasingly vital in today's world, and it must be developed over time. There are so many road expansions during development to counter the substantial increases of motorised vehicles. The growing number of automobiles has resulted in issues such as road damage and a lack of road upkeep. Lack of awareness about the importance of repairing damaged roads, like as potholes, makes it more unsafe for riders to drive without causing injury. These issues are becoming increasingly alarming as the number of accidents and fatalities continues to rise. The pothole detecting sensor can be employed on the automotive system to reduce the risk of an accident. The concept of a pothole detecting sensor was borrowed from the proximity sensor system in this study. This work develops a low-cost sensor with the same quality as the present technology. Despite the use of low-cost sensors, maintenance is similarly low-cost and straight forward. It was revealed as a result of this research and investigation that the distance between the sensor and the observed pothole should be less than 4%
