Sensonic, based in Schärding, Austria, specializes in deep-tech information solutions for the railway industry. Utilizing advanced fiber optic sensing technology combined with Artificial Intelligence (AI), Sensonic enables comprehensive monitoring of track conditions, physical security, and natural hazards such as landslides and rockfalls. Their proprietary SonicTwin® system transforms optical fibers into vibration sensors, providing real-time insights that enhance railway safety and efficiency. Sensonic's innovative approach positions it at the forefront of modernizing railway infrastructure monitoring.
Rail is a vital component of transportation infrastructure, facilitating the movement of passengers and freight across vast distances with low climate impact.
Two important terms for railway inspection techniques and testing that come into play are "true positives" and "false positives." Sensonic breaks these down in simple terms.
If you’ve been following Sensonic for a while you may have seen, we won a contract to provide elephant detection in the East Coast region of Indian Railways.
While railways are often praised as a sustainable / low emission / low carbon mode of transportation, the reality is that climate change increasingly threatens their smooth journeys just like every other form of transport – perhaps even more so.
Sensonic, a leading developer of intelligent sensing solutions for the railway industry, announced the official opening of its new office in Princeton, New Jersey, USA.
Sensonic has integrated CCTV into its Distributed Acoustic Sensing security system, enabling railways to detect and locate trespassers in real-time and visually identify them, thereby enhancing security and situational awareness.
