The invention relates to a highway pavement condition detection 
system based on novel visual sensing equipment. The 
system comprises a controller and a plurality of roadside 
visual monitoring base stations which are connected with the controller and are arranged on the roadside of an expressway; each roadside 
visual monitoring base station comprises a visible light camera and an 
infrared camera, aprogram is carried in the controller, and when the controller executes the program: 
road surface anomaly detection: adopting a semantic classification network, capturing image data of local anomaly and diseases of a 
road surface, and detecting a 
classification result of abnormal conditions of the 
road surface; multi-element road section 
image splicing: collecting 
local road surface images captured by the 
visual monitoring base stations on each side, extracting feature vectors for matching, and realizing 
image splicing among different road sections; and multi-
source image data fusion: analyzing the difference of overlapped parts of different road section images, and realizing transition fusion of the road section images through a fusion 
algorithm. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the anti-interference capability is high, the timeliness of 
pavement maintenance and management is improved, and the like.
