泰雷兹开启铁路数字化时代
French multinational Thales recently held a press conference and Q&A showcasing its digital rail solutions, “Innovation in rail transport: From rail modernisation to rail digitalisation technology".
3月20日，法国跨国公司泰雷兹(Thales)举办了一场题为“铁路运输创新:从铁路现代化到铁路数字化”的新闻发布会，展示其铁路数字化方案。
Thales addressed the importance of cyber security and its current and future digital solutions for the rail industry. The conference presented technology that enables passenger density monitoring on platforms, greener driving for rail operators and the steps that are being taken towards the inclusion of autonomous trains.
泰雷兹公司强调了铁路网络安全的重要性，铁路行业现况及铁路数字化方案。同时介绍了利用各大平台测算乘客密度，铁路运营商绿色驾驶，以及正在将自动驾驶列车纳入其中的相关科技。
Autonomous trains
自动驾驶列车
To achieve train autonomy technology sensors will need to be included to provide the train with situational awareness, which could be communicated via satellite. To ensure safety measures are upheld, the train would also need to be provided with information regarding its route, passenger safety information and surroundings.
为实现列车自主运行，需配备传感器，借助卫星通信设备掌握当前列车运营情况。为确保安全，列车还需接收有关路线、乘客安全信息及周围环境的信息。
Thales vice president and chief technical officer, ground transportation systems Amaury Jourdan said: “We are already doing first trials for instance with SNCF in France [and] with an operator in Germany. We are currently doing trials with sensors and how we can in fact automate more with confidence the operations of mainline trains.”
泰雷兹公司副总裁兼地面运输系统首席技术官Amaury Jourdan称：“我们已经与法国国家铁路公司和德国的一家运营商进行了首次试验。目前，我们正在对传感器进行试验，希望能够更好地实现干线列车的自动化操作。”
Passenger density technology
乘客密度技术
Technology developed by Thales known as DIVA – a crowd-detection algorithm to – helps passengers to avoid crowded areas within the station as well as providing transport operators with insights, predictions, and alerts.
泰利斯公司开发的一项名为DIVA的技术，利用人群检测算法，帮助乘客避开车站内的拥挤区域，并为运输运营商提供实况、预测和警报服务。
The technology works by utilising existing CCTV cameras found in and around train stations by using computer vision algorithms. This data is then used to generate real-time data and heat maps to provide insight into passenger density for passengers and employees.
该技术的工作原理是利用计算机视觉算法，利用火车站现有的监控摄像头。随后利用相关数据生成实时数据和热图，为乘客和员工提供有关乘客密度的信息。
GreenSpeed
绿色驾驶
During the conference, Thales presented its sustainable mobility method, GreenSpeed. This driver advisory technology, controlled by algorithms, informs the driver how to best drive the train according to various environmental cues.
会议期间，泰雷兹公司介绍了其可持续驾驶，即绿色驾驶。该技术由算法控制，为司机提供咨询，并告知司机如何根据周边环境驾驶。
The technology monitors speed, weather conditions and track congestion, and according to Thales, will reduce emissions by up to 15% which equivalates to the consumption of a city that has 2,000 inhabitants per year.
司机可以利用该技术了解车速、天气状况和轨道拥堵情况，泰雷兹公司称，该技术将减少15%的排放量，相当于一个2000名居民城市每年排放量的总和。
