Machine Vision Based Inspection System is a modern, artificial intelligence based technology solution deployed on wayside that captures high-resolution images of the under-gear of moving trains and automatically detects any hanging, loose or missing components.

On detecting anomalies, the system generates real-time alerts to facilitate prompt response and preventive action.

“Under the terms of the MoU, DFCCIL will be responsible for the procurement, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of four MVIS units. This revolutionary system marks a first for Indian Railways,” the Railway Ministry said in a press note.

“The technology is expected to significantly enhance the safety of train operations, reduce manual inspection efforts and help avoid potential accidents/service disruptions,” it added.

The initiative, official said, also aligns with the Indian Railways broader objective of introducing modern, intelligent systems to the railway ecosystem.

“The signing of this MoU is poised to open new avenues for digital transformation in rail safety in building a future-ready rail infrastructure,” the ministry said. PTI JP AS AS
