RAAH is a robust 2-wheeled robot used to ensure rail track maintenance. It that has various
sensors attached to it that can detect the following parameters:
- ● Crack detection : Our machine consists of 4 ultrasonic
sensors that can detect a crack in railway tracks so that accidents can be avoided through
regular checking.
- ● Corrosion detection : Timely detection of corrosion will
act as a precaution to train cracks, which is one of the significant contributors to the
formation of cracks. Our machine uses computer vision to detect it.
- ● Angle Elevation : Indian Railways have a requirement of
measuring the angle elevation of the ground on which the sleepers are laid so that they are
synchronized. Our machine comes with a sensor that can measure angle elevation.
- ● Altitude : Indian Railways have a requirement to measure
the altitude of the railway track to prepare the surface below the track. Our machine can
measure altitude accurately for the same.
Our machine is equipped with a LoRa module which will send the coordinates of the crack to the
station master via an application created by us so that the station master can assign a
particular person to rectify the track condition immediately.
