Claim Text:
1. An apparatus, comprising: a multidirectional positioning system on a front of a vehicle and including a pair of lateral rail bars and cross-lateral rail bars extending between the lateral rail bars; at least two scanner heads each attached to a cross-lateral rail bar and configured to scan a volume of three-dimensional road damage; a cleaning head attached to the multidirectional positioning system between the at least two scanner heads and configured to clean the three-dimensional road damage by spreading a pressurized fluid over the three-dimensional road damage; a scrubbing head attached to the multidirectional positioning system between one of the scanner heads and a filling head attached to the multidirectional positioning system, the scrubbing head being configured to remove irregularities from a surface of the three-dimensional road damage; a processor having processing circuitry configured to determine a volume of the three-dimensional road damage based on volume data received from the at least two scanner heads and calculate an amount of filling material required to fill the three-dimensional road damage based on the volume data wherein the filling head is controlled via the processor to move with respect to a shape of the three-dimensional road damage based on the volume data to fill in the three-dimensional road damage with the calculated amount of filling material.
