The global rail market is booming as urban populations soar. Leaders in populated cities seek better transportation options to respond to population growth and safety concerns. In parallel, railway operators face expansion constraints as operating budgets shrink and supply chain pressures increase. These forces acting against each other make implementation of next-generation railway solutions difficult. Railway operators need innovative solutions.
Railway operators are turning to modern technologies like edge computing and artificial intelligence (AI) to help gain better business insights and safety enhancements. Intel-powered smart railway solutions combine integrated hardware and software to solve problems at the edge of networks. Railway operators can use Intel-based solutions to connect onboard cameras and devices to existing in-vehicle computers or back-office operation centers. These solutions help create a safer, more efficient railway fleet.
Intel and its global ecosystem of partners collaborated to develop the necessary ingredients for an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) to help reduce human-error-caused accidents. This system supports enhanced decision-making for the human driver. ADAS uses onboard and Intel-based cameras, sensors, and software to detect the presence of objects. It then calculates the stopping distance between the train and surrounding objects. ADAS uses near-real-time situational awareness to warn drivers of hazardous situations and stop trains automatically before certain accidents occur. ADAS helps reduce and prevent human-error-related train-to-train collisions, over-speed limit derailments, and other potentially hazardous situations.
