Intelligent compaction (IC) refers to the use of a compaction roller equipped with an integrated roller measurement system (often using an accelerometer mounted on the drum), and a survey-grade precision GPS unit. If used for asphalt compaction, infrared temperature sensors are also used. The IC technology has an on-board computer display that provides the operator with real-time feedback of the stiffness of compacted materials and roller passes. For asphalt application, infrared temperature sensors are also mounted on the roller to track asphalt surface temperature during compaction.
