Singapore's national Research Foundation has awarded a $US 197,000 grant to a research project which is developing new real-time asset monitoring technology for third-rail electrification. The project is being led by Dr See Kye Yak, associate professor at Singapore Nanyang Technological University's School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Most existing electrification inspection systems are based on ultrasonic, pulsed eddy current, and machine vision technologies, which require the installation of sensors and instruments on a dedicated inspection vehicle.
