Wi-Tronix LLC will provide its advanced video analytics solution, Violet, to Mexican Class I railroad, Ferrocarril Mexicano S.A. (Ferromex). Violet provides both snapshots and streaming video and associated data to railways through a cloud-based SaaS solution to help companies to improve their operational efficiency and safety procedures.
Violet camera and video analytics systems expand dramatically upon railways’ traditional uses of locomotive digital video recorders (DVR). The Violet solution aggregates petabytes of video data in an Internet of Things approach to create actionable information from the locomotive video. Ferromex will capitalize on Violet’s camera system to further ensure the safety of its crew and the security of both its assets and its cargo. Violet’s smart Visual Intelligence (VI) technology has the ability to provide video analytics which can automatically monitor infrastructure and other mission-critical assets.
This represents a further expansion of the existing collaboration between the companies, which had previously announced in 2016 Ferromex’s full-fleet deployment of the Wi-Tronix Wi-PU, an advanced on-board computing and SaaS-based data analytics solution. This latest installation expands Ferromex’s reliance on Wi-Tronix to support its ecosystem for the collection and utility of operational-critical data.
