"Track Eye" Low-Altitude Patrol Solution for Metro Protected Areas

Business Needs

■ Limited accessibility with traditional inspection methods
■ Undetected flaws in elevated bridge inspection
■ Low efficiency in tunnel inspection
■ Time-consuming checks of track facilities

Our Advantage

  • Closed-Loop Intelligent Management Platform

    An intelligent command center for track inspection that consolidates multi-source monitoring data and early warning informationforms an integrated closed-loop control system of "inspection - early warning - dispatch - resolution".

  • High Safety Standards

    The self-developed low-altitude "Zhuque" air traffic management platform is the first in China to pass the DO 278A AL3 standards of RINA and SIL2 safety certification of IEC61508.

  • Core Competitiveness

    First in China to independently master CBTC core technology, overcoming critical bottlenecks and becoming independent of the signal system, thereby driving the development of the entire industrial chain.

  • Rich Practical Application

    Low-altitude inspection projects in rail protection areas have been implemented in Foshan, Nanning and other cities; Pilot low-altitude inspection projects of tunnels and bridges have been carried out in Hong Kong, Chongqing and other places.

Solutions

The UAV autonomous duty system uses multi-rotor UAVs with various payloads as the sensing front-end for low-altitude remote sensing collection; the UAV hangars as the control nodes for the remote sensing network; and the low-altitude inspection management platform as the system platform for inspection data management and analysis.

System Components

cloud platform, UAV (model, payload, endurance, mount), etc.

Functionality

■ The solution enables automated inspection of rail control protected areas, bridges, and tunnels, while also assisting in the examination of track equipment and facilities such as overhead contact system, rail fasteners, tunnel ventilation fans, etc.
■ In the event of an accident or disaster, UAVs can quickly respond and send back onsite image data; and command personnel is able to remotely guide evacuations and direct emergency response.


Application Examples

■ Dongguan Metro Line 1: The project is an intelligent management solution for rail protection areas integrating a comprehensive management platform and automated UAV inspection system. Once completed, it will become the first benchmark for rail protection area management with full UAV dock coverage in China.
■  Taizhou City Railway Line S1:Research on UAV intelligent inspection of bridges and ancillary facilities, elevated highway extensions, and rail protection areas is conducted to explore new intelligent inspection methods for city railway lines.
