Intelligent Train Eye System (ITE)

Background

Urban rail transit develops rapidly with complex environments; risk accidents caused by intrusions into line clearancesoccur frequently; and high-speed trains face delayed response times in emergencies. These are making the replacement of "human protection" with "technical protection"a prevailing trend. The system is crucial for supporting operational perception and safety, serving as a core technology for fully automated driving.

IEC 62267 defines normative requirements for fully automated trains, and the group standard "Urban Rail Transit Trian Operation Safety Monitoring System Part 3: Obstacle Detection System"issued by the China Association of Metros provides specific technical guidance for system development.

Product Features

  • Environment Perception Based on Camera and LiDAR

    The system integrates image visual perception with LiDAR ranging technology to achieve comprehensive, high-precision environmental perception, improving the accuracy and reliability of obstacle detection.

  • Binocular Stereo Vision Environmental Perception:

    By adopting binocular stereo vision technology that mimics the principles of human binocular vision, the system enables more accurate distance and position judgment, thereby enhancing obstacle detectioneffectiveness.

  • High Safety and Reliability

    The system complies with the SIL4 safety integrity level, ensuring high safety and reliability even under extreme conditions, providing robust protection for train operation.

Application Examples

Beijing Subway Line 11:As a fallbackfor the signaling system,ITE provides robust safety protection for train operation and ensures stable line performance.

Hong Kong Tsuen Wan Line:Deployed on the Tsuen Wan Line,the system enables precise detection and protection against obstacles, ensuring the safe operation of the line.

Taiyuan Metro Line 1:Deeply integratedwith the train-to-train communication system, ITE provides comprehensive obstacle detection and alert functions, ensuring safe train operation.

Chengdu Metro Ziyang Line: The application of the system on Chengdu Metro Ziyang Line enables multi-modal perception and protection, adapting to diverse operational requirements. This has significantly improved both the safety and operational efficiency of the line.
