INGLAS is extending real-time geohazard monitoring beyond rockfall barriers, with a new sensor designed to monitor slope movement even in some of the most remote and challenging environments.

A rockfall barrier can do exactly what it was engineered to do — absorb the impact, hold the debris, protect the track — and still leave one question unanswered: does anyone actually know it happened?.

This article presents a clear, evidence-based comparison drawn from field deployments, engineering evaluations, and documented system behaviour under extreme conditions.

Detection Across Alpine Rail Networks.

A Key Railway Through Alpine Terrain.

As winter loosens its grip and temperatures begin to rise, a new set of challenges emerges for railway operators in mountainous regions.

Designed for deployment in remote, temporary and hazardous locations, this system combines portability, durability, and real-time monitoring capabilities to enhance safety for rail workers and infrastructure.

At Impact Sentinel, we have spent years developing advanced sensor technology to help railway operators manage these risks effectively.
