Tag: fiber optic sensing for rail

Fiber optic sensors, which work on the basis of Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), provide comprehensive access to a wide range of information surrounding the railway....These solutions allow an overview of the entire railway network, including rolling stock, to be formed in real-time.

Frauscher has founded a new, separate company, Sensonic, for its Fiber Optic Sensing (FOS) business, and rebranding itself as two technology companies “ready for the future.”

AP Sensing...recently received funding from the Department for Transport as part of Network Rail’s R&D program....sensors will tap into Network Rail’s existing fiber optic cable network using AP Sensing’s Distributed Acoustic/Vibration Sensing
