The invention discloses a method comprising the step of capturing, by a machine vision device (150a), an image of an object (170, 172, 174) in a railway environment (120). The machine vision device is attached to a first train car (140a) that moves in a first direction (160a) along a first railway track (130a) of the railway environment. The method further includes the step of analyzing, by the machine vision device, the image of the object using one or more machine vision algorithms to determine a value associated with the object. The method further includes the steps of determining, by the machine vision device, that a value associated with the object is indicative of a potential defect of the object and communicating, by the machine vision device, an alert to a component external to the first train compartment. The object may be associated with a second railway track (130b) adjacent and parallel to the first railway track. The alert includes an indication of a potential defect of the object. The external component may be a network center of operation (180) or may be attached to a second train car (140b) moving in a second direction (160b) along a second railway track (130b), where the alert instructs the second train car to perform an action, such as a stop or deceleration.

    本发明公开一种方法,其包括通过机器视觉装置(150a)捕获铁路环境(120)中物体(170、172、174)的图像的步骤。机器视觉装置附接到沿铁路环境的第一铁路轨道(130a)在第一方向(160a)上移动的第一火车车厢(140a)。所述方法还包括通过机器视觉装置使用一个或多个机器视觉算法来分析物体的图像,以确定与物体相关联的值的步骤。所述方法还包括通过机器视觉装置确定与物体相关联的值指示物体的潜在缺陷以及通过机器视觉装置向第一火车车厢外部的组件传达警报的步骤。所述物体可以与邻近并平行于第一铁路轨道的第二铁路轨道(130b)相关联。所述警报包括物体的潜在缺陷的指示。外部组件可以是网络操作中心(180)或者可以附接到沿第二铁路轨道(130b)在第二方向(160b)上移动的第二火车车厢(140b),其中所述警报指示第二火车车厢执行动作,例如停止或减速。
