Intelligent compaction (IC) is a technology that uses non-contact sensors to monitor and record the compaction level of geomaterials in real-time during road construction. However, current IC devices have several limitations: (i) they are unable to visualize or compare multiple intelligent compaction measurement values (ICMVs) in real-time during compaction; (ii) they are not retrofittable to different conventional rollers that exist in the field; (iii) they do not incorporate corrections for ICMVs reflecting variable field conditions; (iv) they are unable to integrate construction specifications as needed for performance-based compaction; and (v) they do not record all the key roller parameters for further compaction analysis. To address these issues, an innovative retrofittable platform with cutting-edge hardware and software was developed. This platform, called the intelligent compaction analyzer (ICA) platform, is effective at calculating conventional acceleration amplitude-based ICMVs and stiffness-based parameters and at displaying the spatial distributions of these parameters in a color-coded map in real-time during compaction.
智能压实（IC）是一种利用非接触式传感器在道路施工过程中实时监测和记录土工材料压实程度的技术。然而，当前的智能压实设备存在若干局限性：（i）它们无法在压实过程中实时可视化或比较多个智能压实测量值（ICMV）；（ii）它们无法改装到现场现有的不同传统压路机上；（iii）它们没有对反映可变现场条件的ICMV进行校正；（iv）它们无法根据基于性能的压实要求整合施工规范；以及（v）它们没有记录所有关键压路机参数以供进一步的压实分析。为了解决这些问题，开发了一个具有前沿硬件和软件的创新型可改装平台。这个平台称为智能压实分析仪（ICA）平台，它能够有效地计算基于传统加速度幅值的ICMV和基于刚度的参数，并在压实过程中实时以彩色编码地图显示这些参数的空间分布。
