Technology in transportation becomes important nowadays and must be developed overtime. In the era of development, there are so many roads extensions to balance the significant additions of motorized vehicles. The increasing number of vehicles caused problems such as damaged roads and lack of maintenance to the road itself. Lack of awareness to repair the damaged roads, especially potholes, make it more dangerous for riders to drive safely. This issues are more concerning right now because the increasing number of accident and mortality. To prevent accident to happen, the pothole detection sensor can be used to on car system. The development of pothole detection sensor in this research is adopted from the proximity sensor system where in that system they use camera and digital imaging process. The advantages from our system that we research and develop are more user friendly from the feasibility and the financial aspect. Low cost sensor with the same quality of the existing system is devlop in this work. Despite the use of low cost sensor, the maintenance also on the lower cost and easier to do. As the result of this research and study, an error was obtained between the distance that detected the pothole should be in less than 4% distance range from the sensor.
