Ostirion SLU

OSTIRION has developed its own Optical Train Positioning System (SPOT) technology. The SPOT technology senses the position and speed of a train in the railway network using affordable and scalable optical systems and artificial intelligence processor technology.

​

The SPOT system offers an additional and alternate speed and location signal at a reduced cost, potentially decreasing both infrastructure construction and train operating costs by several orders of magnitude. These position and speed signals are not subjected to GPS error or wheel odometry error.

​

The SPOT system can:

​

1. Detect relevant wayside position and sector status markers.

2. Recognize the information contained in the marker.

3. Process the corresponding position in the rail network and estimated train speed.

4. Position the train in the rail network and report location, speed, and status to the CBTC control centers.
