Roughometer 3

The Roughometer III is a portable device that provides objective and repeatable roughness measurements of roads. It directly measures axle movement with a precision accelerometer to determine road profile and roughness, eliminating uncertainties from vehicle characteristics. The Roughometer III collects over 8,000 miles of accurate roughness data integrated with GPS. Its processing software enables customization of survey results into graphs, tables, and maps.
