Overview

Objectives

The aim of the project was to develop a new system for recognition and inspection of railway infrastructures based on Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging (LIDAR technology) by developing new equipment and systems, adapting data processing algorithms and software, to lead to a system that improves significantly the current 'state of the art'.

Results

RESULTS 
This solution was directly related to the quality assurance of the railway infrastructures, which proposed a new and improved way of carrying out the overhaul of overhead power lines, specifically through the development of a more precise, more agile and more efficient system of measurement and revision of the electrical infrastructures. It is also cheaper than current products in the market and therefore, it is a product with a great future, and a high capacity for penetration into the market.
