Alstom and Flox trialling AI wildlife detection system in Sweden
October 2, 2024 (Railway Technology)
Alstom and Flox are trialing an AI wildlife detection system on Swedish railways to reduce train-animal collisions, with the technology identifying animals and using tailored sound signals to deter them. The project, funded by a Swedish government grant, aims to enhance both rail safety and wildlife protection by preventing the approximately 5,000 annual animal collisions on Sweden's tracks.
