Our POTA (Portable Train Detection & Alarm Systems) features a radar sensor that detects trains 1.2 km away, activating alarms at railway bridges to ensure safety. This portable solution enhances awareness and prevents accidents near train tracks. Stay safe with POTA!
THERE ARE TWO IMPORTANT PARTS OF THE SYSTEM
Transmitter
It consists of a power supply (solar panel , solar charge controller
and battery).
Radar sensor is used to detect trains at a specific distance from the
track.
RF module is used to transmit data from the transmitter, converting
it into a signal that can be received by the receiver.
Structure is also constructed to install this device.
RECEIVER
It consists of a power supply (solar panel , solar charge
controller and battery).
RF module is used to collect data from the transmitter.
Hooter is used to sound a siren before a train arriving a bridge
or any other construction site.
Structure is also constructed to install this device.
WORKING
A structure is developed for mounting the device. Then, one by one, all necessary
parts are installed at the receiver and transmitter ends. The transmitter is
located 1.2 km away from the receiver end on both the up and down sides of
the train track.
When a train passes through the transmitter end, the radar sensor detects it and
transfers the signal to the receiver end. The receiver end collects this data, reads
it frequently, and activates the hooter, sounding an alarm at railway bridge. This
alerts people to pay attention when they hear the siren.
