TrackEi™ to revolutionize track inspections in the Mobility segment with NVIDIA Jetson™ - Powered AI for Real-Time Defect Detection

SANTA CLARA, Calif. & BENGALURU, India: $LTTS #AI--L&T Technology Services Limited (BSE: 540115, NSE: LTTS), a global leader in engineering and technology services, today announced the launch of TrackEi™, an AI-powered railway track inspection solution. Designed as part of LTTS’ growing mobility portfolio, TrackEi™ leverages the NVIDIA Jetsonplatform for edge AI and robotics — to deliver real-time defect detection and, support predictive maintenance, enhancing safety for rail networks worldwide.

The latest development follows a series of accolades recognizing LTTS’ leadership in rail innovation, including winning the Etihad Rail Innovation Award for its “Innovative Way to Detect Visible Rail Defects in Real-Time.” TrackEi™ will be showcased at the NVIDIA GTC 2025 AI Conference, highlighting LTTS’ ongoing commitment to AI-driven transformation in transportation infrastructure.

Traditionally, rail inspection involved manual processes or slow-moving trolleys, which are time consuming and sometimes fail to detect critical flaws in time to prevent derailments. TrackEi™ addresses this challenge by automating high-speed inspections at over 60 Miles Per Hour, utilizing high-resolution cameras and laser profiling to identify issues such as broken rails, cracks, track misalignments, and other structural defects. By integrating deep learning algorithms powered by NVIDIA accelerated computing, TrackEi™ delivers immediate actionable intelligence and continuously improves detection accuracy over time.

The NVIDIA Jetson™ platform delivers high performance AI compute and sensor processing capability for autonomous machines and robotics, accelerating deep learning inference capabilities and enabling TrackEi™ to:

  • Process massive amounts of high-speed image data on the fly, reducing reliance on cloud connectivity
  • Perform complex machine vision tasks with high accuracy via stroboscopic lights, thus nullifying impact of variable lighting and weather conditions
  • Continuously learn and adapt from real-world data, ensuring sustained performance improvement

Key Product Differentiators

  • Real-Time Defect Detection: AI-driven algorithms analyze video feeds and sensor data in milliseconds, enabling immediate alerts for anomalies.
  • Predictive Maintenance: By aggregating inspection data over time, TrackEi™ helps MoW and operators have an intelligent prediction of when and where maintenance is needed, minimizing downtime.
  • Scalable, Edge-Based Architecture: Built on NVIDIA Jetson™, TrackEi™ operates at the network edge, reducing latency and bandwidth requirements while ensuring high reliability.
  • Seamless Integration: The system can be retrofitted onto existing rolling stock/locomotive/inspection vehicles and easily integrated into standard railway management systems, enabling faster adoption and return on investment.
  • Enhanced Safety & Sustainability: By detecting defects early and optimizing maintenance schedules, TrackEi™ contributes to safer journeys, reduced fuel consumption, and lower emissions.
  • “At LTTS, we are redefining railway safety by combining AI, machine vision, and edge computing to create an intelligent, scalable inspection solution,” said Alind Saxena, Executive Director & President - Mobility & Tech at L&T Technology Services. “With TrackEi running on the powerful NVIDIA Jetson platform, rail operators can detect defects with unparalleled accuracy while optimizing maintenance schedules and reducing downtime.”

    The launch of TrackEi™ builds on LTTS’ deep collaboration with NVIDIA, which recently included the unveiling of a cutting-edge AI Experience Zone at LTTS. This ongoing partnership underscores LTTS’ commitment to driving innovation across industries by leveraging advanced AI technologies.

    Accelerated by the NVIDIA Jetson™ platform, LTTS’ TrackEi™ solution, having gone through initial trial at our Class-I Railroad customers in different variants, is currently undergoing testing and evaluation at MxV Rail in Pueblo, CO, under the supervision of Dr. Anish Poudel, Scientist (Research & Innovation) and his research team. MxV Rail is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Association of American Railroads.
