Global railway couplers market: Adoption of IoT in railways
Modern railway systems are widely adopting IoT technologies to control and manage technology and communications systems. The smart railway systems give trains the ability to sense their environment and provide the capability to react accordingly. These smart trains are a combination of geospatial mapping, smart vision systems, and network-centric reporting, which makes them fully autonomous in their operations.
“The railway industry will use these smart transportation systems that leverage a combination of technology, planning, and greater intelligence to harness data to provide better service and safer travel. With digital revolutions like IoT, it is easier and cheaper to offer efficient services such as asset utilization, reduced costs, better experience, and better operations,” says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on engineering tools.
