Automatic Rail Track Inspection System

The need for safety components in the contemporary rail systems is increasing as a result of the need to prevent accidents. Among the presence of impediments on the tracks, whether they are stationary or mobile, is one of the major factors that might cause significant accidents. This study focuses on one of the most effective techniques for preventing railway accidents caused by track cracks and obstacle identification. The primary goal of this project is to create a method for identifying railway track cracks and notifying nearby stations. The location of track defects is being pinpointed by a GPS system. The project provides a solution by providing an advanced tracking and management system for trains to improve the current railway track inspection and hence transportation service. The approach is based on a potent blend of mobile computing, an infrared sensor, an Arduino Uno and the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM)
