This order is part of a larger $5 million contract with one of the leading American companies specializing in rolling stock leasing and railway transportation.

The Switch Yard system, developed by Rail Vision, is based on the application of artificial intelligence and optical sensors.

Its primary purpose is to ensure the safety of maneuvering operations at railway stations and depots.

The technology automatically detects and classifies various defects and obstacles on the tracks, preventing potential accidents and incidents.

One of the key advantages of the system is its high efficiency in conditions of poor visibility and adverse weather.

Switch Yard has a range of up to 200 meters, allowing timely responses to emerging threats and preventing their escalation.

The system can identify train routes and detect abnormal conditions of switches, significantly reducing the risk of damage and derailment.

Moreover, Switch Yard monitors areas with limited visibility and the condition of couplers, ensuring the safe coupling of cars.

In case of a potential threat, the system instantly transmits acoustic and visual signals to the operator and locomotive driver in real-time.

Thus, the use of the Switch Yard system significantly enhances safety in railway transportation, minimizing the likelihood of accidents and reducing the time required to fix malfunctions.

Rail Vision’s innovative developments continue to attract the attention of major companies in the railway transportation sector, indicating the high potential and significance of Israeli technologies on the international stage.
