Engineering services firm, L&T Technology Services (LTTS) on Wednesday launched ‘TrackEi’, an AI-powered railway track inspection solution designed to enhance safety for rail networks worldwide.
The system utilizes the NVIDIA Jetson platform for edge AI and robotics to deliver real-time defect detection and support predictive maintenance, the company said in a press release.
TrackEi™ automates high-speed inspections at over 60 miles per hour, using high-resolution cameras and laser profiling to identify issues such as broken rails, cracks, track misalignments, and structural defects. The solution processes image data on the fly and performs complex machine vision tasks even in variable lighting and weather conditions.
“At LTTS, we are redefining railway safety by combining AI, machine vision, and edge computing to create an intelligent, scalable inspection solution,” said Alind Saxena, Executive Director & President – Mobility & Tech at L&T Technology Services.
“With TrackEi TM running on the powerful NVIDIA Jetson TM platform, rail operators can detect defects with unparalleled accuracy while optimizing maintenance schedules and reducing downtime,” he said.
The launch of TrackEi™ builds on LTTS’ collaboration with NVIDIA, which recently included the unveiling of a cutting-edge AI Experience Zone at LTTS. This ongoing partnership underscores LTTS’ commitment to driving innovation across industries by leveraging advanced AI technologies.
