• Understanding of the problem : Performing an under-rail wagon inspection is not practical for a human inspector,
particularly when there is no inspection pit under the train.
• Solution streams/ domains :Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics & communication
Engineering, Computer Science Engineering
• Technical concept for Solution(s) : A mobile robotic system is a compact, rail-guided vehicle with wheels that fit in
the space between the rail wagon and train track, featuring extendable sensor arms with cameras and light to scan hard-
to-reach areas under the wagon. It has a rugged, dust- and water-resistant exterior suited for rail environments and
includes wireless connectivity for real-time monitoring and data sharing.
• Approach for implementation of concept : Implementation will include developing a modular prototype to test
various configurations and ensure the system’s adaptability to different inspection needs. The robot will then undergo
calibration and rigorous field trials in actual rail yard conditions to validate its mobility and accuracy.
• Approach to prove the concept : The concept will be proven through controlled tests to validate core functions and
accuracy, followed by field tests in real train yards to assess reliability and effectiveness. Data will then be analyzed to
measure detection rates, accuracy, and inspection speed, allowing comparison with traditional inspection methods.
• External dependencies : External dependencies include obtaining rail yard access for field trials in live environments
and securing a reliable supply of high-quality inspection camera for rail applications. Stable and secure wireless
connectivity is also essential for remote operation and real-time data transmission.
