Maheshwar Rao, Managing Director, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation (BMRCL), heads the organisation which is the first in India to use artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor tracks.The train’s AI technology will assess the condition of the track and if any anomalies are detected, it triggers alerts through AI software to the operation control centres (OCC) via the train control and management system (TCMS) making it safer.Initially, the AI system will be deployed on the Yellow Line but BMRCL plans to have the same feature on other upcoming lines that will have driverless trains. The technology is expected to be fully operational by September 2024.The AI system, fitted on the pilot train, has personnel from various teams such as rolling stock, traction, signalling and track maintenance on board. This train, compared to regular services, runs at a reduced speed to thoroughly examine all obstacles and potential issues along the route.The Yellow Line of Namma Metro, which began in 2017, has 16 elevated stations and covers a distance of 18.8 km.
