JW-MRSS2(HY01)road surface condition sensor is a vehicle-mounted pavement monitoring device designed for fast, real-time detection of road surface ice, snow, water film, and wetness conditions during mobile inspection. Using remote sensing technology, it helps road maintenance teams monitor winter road hazards, evaluate pavement friction conditions, and make timely decisions for traffic safety management.
2. Product Overview
JW-MRSS2(HY01) road surface condition sensor can identify multiple pavement states, including dry, damp, wet, snow, ice, and ice-water mixed surfaces. It measures water film thickness, ice thickness, skid resistance level, road surface temperature, and ambient temperature while the vehicle is moving, providing reliable data for winter road maintenance, highway patrol, and traffic safety control.
With a rugged structure, built-in rechargeable lithium batteries, Bluetooth communication, and RS485 output, the sensor supports both mobile and fixed installation. Measurement data can be displayed in real time through a mobile app or transmitted to computer software for storage and analysis.

4. How It Works
The sensor uses remote sensing technology to scan the road surface without direct contact. By analyzing the reflected signal from the pavement, it identifies surface conditions and calculates key parameters such as water film thickness, ice thickness, and friction level. This enables rapid road condition assessment while the vehicle is in motion, making it especially useful for dynamic winter maintenance operations.
