SENSiS Detection Point SDP: The intelligent railway vacancy detection sensor.
SENSiS is an award winning railway vacancy detection system featuring safe, precise and reliable wheel detection. It offers new IoT capabilities - not only detecting trains reliably, but evaluating and digitizing the data as well. It collects additional data on acceleration and temperature, which is processed and made instantly available to the network.
Keeping Frauscher Tracking Solutions on the right track.
The new interface design provides railway operators and service companies with real-time data on the condition of the track and infrastructure. Changes to the track, track bed, sleepers, wheels and more are detected and visually displayed on an interface for the first time. This optimisation in possibilities for train detection has already attracted a great deal of interest in the rail industry.
“We presented SENSiS for the first time at InnoTrans 2018 and were overwhelmed by the great interest and positive feedback. This system opens up completely new possibilities and represents the latest generation of track vacancy detection against the backdrop of an increasing digitalisation of the railway industry.”
Mr. Mayank Tripathi, Managing Director at Frauscher.
