Experts Urge AI, Sensors to Monitor India's Infrastructure

Imagine India's bridges and tunnels are like our bodies – we need checkups to make sure they're healthy.

Right now, we mostly do 'eye tests,' but that's not always enough to see what's wrong inside.

Experts want to use smart tools like tiny sensors and AI (like a super-smart helper) to watch over these important structures.

These tools can spot problems early, helping us fix things before they become dangerous.

But, the special sensors cost a lot and are mostly bought from other countries.

Scientists are working to make our own cheaper sensors so we can keep our roads and bridges safe for everyone.
