Company News
India's Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change has tested an AI-based early-warning system to prevent trains from hitting elephants. Deployed in Madukkarai, Tamil Nadu, the system uses 12 tower-mounted cameras with thermal and motion-sensing technology to detect elephant movement within 100 metres of railway tracks. When elephants are detected, the system automatically alerts forest and railway officials, enabling trains to slow down. A separate Distributed Acoustic System-based Intrusion Detection System is already operational across 64 kilometres of elephant corridors and 141 kilometres of railway sections in Assam, with India's East Coast Railway planning adoption soon. Field surveys have also identified hundreds of locations where bridges, underpasses or fences could protect elephants without requiring AI technology.
