  Self-healing roads might seem like something we could have in the future, but scientists and Google are working on making it a reality now.


Google has introduced a futuristic concept known as "self-healing roads," which aims to revolutionize road maintenance by using AI and robotics. This technology involves embedding sensors in the road to detect damage like cracks or potholes. Once damage is detected, the system autonomously deploys repair robots that can fill these defects with a special material that hardens to match the road's surface. This not only promises to reduce the need for human intervention in road repairs but also aims to extend the lifespan of roads, decrease traffic disruptions, and lower maintenance costs. While still in the experimental phase, this innovation could potentially lead to safer, more durable road infrastructure, showcasing how AI might transform everyday infrastructure management.
