This paper deals with the two degrees of freedom response-type mechanism (2 DOF RTM) designed at Iran University Science and Technology. The applications of the 2 DOF RTM are to measure the longitudinal road profile and assess the vehicle suspension system. When the 2 DOF RTM is connected to a vehicle, it is able to measure the longitudinal road profile and it is capable of assessing the vehicle suspension system while it is perched upon the exciting device. The most important part of the 2 DOF RTM is its hub planned for decreasing the vehicle movement effects on the measurement. Moreover, this paper develops a novel procedure in order to convert the measured profile from the variable speed to the constant speed. To examine the 2 DOF RTM, a profile of a road is measured by the mechanism in the time-domain, and then the highly significant roughness indices such as power spectral density (PSD) of the road unevenness, international roughness index (IRI) and present serviceability index (PSI) are estimated using the measured profile.
