Indian Railways Introduces AI-Powered Linen Inspection System at Pune’s Ghorpadi Yard
Pune, 20th July 2024: Sakar Robotics has launched the Linen Inspection & Sorting Assistant (LISA), an advanced AI-based automation machine designed to ensure 100% quality inspection of bedsheets used by Indian Railways. The first pilot installation of LISA has been successfully completed at the Ghorpadi Yard in the Pune Railway Division which was inaugurated by Railway Minister. LISA represents a significant technological advancement in the maintenance and quality control of railway linens. Utilizing state-of-the-art artificial intelligence, LISA meticulously inspects each bedsheet for any defects, stains, or damages, ensuring that passengers receive only the highest quality linens during their travels. The introduction of LISA at the Ghorpadi Yard marks a transformative step for Indian Railways in automating and enhancing their linen management process. By integrating this cutting-edge technology, Indian Railways aims to streamline operations, reduce manual labor, and elevate the standard of passenger amenities.
Key Features of LISA: – 100% Quality Inspection: LISA performs thorough inspections, detecting and sorting out any substandard linens. – AI-Based Technology: Advanced AI algorithms ensure precise and reliable inspection results. – Efficiency and Speed: LISA can process large volumes of linens quickly, significantly improving operational efficiency. – Enhanced Passenger Experience: By ensuring high-quality linens, LISA contributes to a more comfortable and hygienic travel experience for passengers. Sakar Robotics is committed to leveraging the power of AI and automation to drive innovation and efficiency in various industries. The deployment of LISA is a testament to this commitment and marks a significant milestone in our partnership with Indian Railways.
“We have closely worked with Pune Railway division under the guidance of Indu Dubey, DRM Pune. This is very unproductive and time consuming problem for the railway which we could solve through AI & Machine vision. We are thrilled to launch LISA and are confident that it will set new benchmarks in quality control within the railways satisfying passengers & ensuring high hygiene standards. This will also help staff, contractors and people involved in cleaning so that they can focused on core work”, said Karan Patil and Manoj Pochat, founders of Sakar Robotics.
“Our collaboration with Indian Railways exemplifies our dedication to delivering cutting-edge solutions that enhance operational efficiency and passenger satisfaction.”
The pilot installation at Pune’s Ghorpadi Yard is the first step towards a broader deployment of LISA across the Indian Railways network. Sakar Robotics looks forward to expanding this innovative solution to more locations, ensuring that passengers nationwide benefit from the highest standards of linen quality.
