TTC MARCONI, in cooperation with the Railway Administration (RA), has launched a test project at the Adamov station that uses artificial intelligence to detect risky situations.
Video analytical functions associated with artificial intelligence, i.e., on-line evaluation of images from existing cameras, are being tested. TTC MARCONI will simulate various situations and scenarios, verifying the correct settings of both the cameras and the evaluation software. And, naturally, the setup of the processes that will follow after the detection of a certain behaviour.
The aim of the solution is to gain the ability to distinguish potentially dangerous situations, and then initiate quick and appropriate responses to minimize damage or even prevent incidents. These solutions are particularly applicable where larger, more structured areas are covered by a greater number of cameras and it is not within the power of humans to monitor all these cameras.
This is a validation exercise to determine whether the tested technologies are suitable for deployment in the RA environment. It also involves finding and setting up the optimal use of video analytics and related artificial intelligence.
