Every day in many metropolitan areas, railway and road commuters are approaching the limits of what they’ll tolerate. Today more than half the world’s population is already living in cities. By 2050, another 2.5 billion people will be living in large cities and urban regions worldwide. In these areas in particular, intermodal and multimodal travel will internetwork carriers and reduce traffic. At the same time, a drastically higher quantity of goods from globalized economies must be managed, while environmental protection and passenger comfort are coming to the fore. ▬ Railway Technology▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Together with other partners, Siemens jointly develops a scalable sensor platform, adjusted to the requirements of the rail sector. It is used for all rail vehicles, be it new or old ones. The advantage for our customers: Existing assistant systems can be enhanced step by step with the latest and proven technology. For example, sensors or algorithms to become solutions for autonomous driving. We then connect the environment in vehicle sensors, the digital train infrastructure, for example interlockings and level crossings, other vehicles and the control center, into one highly integrated system for autonomous driving. ▬ Solutions for Autonomous Driving▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Today there are impressive projects that already prove that the digital transformation works when it’s responsibly designed. Whether it’s a matter of automated driving, upgrading the entire railway infrastructure to reflect new standards, or digital interlockings, Siemens Mobility is a pioneer in the digitalization field. The goal is to enable higher capacities and improve punctuality, availability, energy efficiency, and safety. Automated Train Operation (ATO) and Europe-wide standards like the ETCS are important foundation technologies for comprehensive automation and data recording. ETCS is intended to replace the more than 20 national railway control and safety systems currently in use on the European continent, with the goal of enabling cross-border rail traffic in Europe. ▬ What comes next?▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ The digital transformation has already begun, so let’s shape it together. The ongoing development of proven signaling systems and the use of innovative technologies are creating a smart, digitally networked infrastructure. With new digital solutions and business models, companies like Siemens will work with their customers – operators and infrastructure providers – to implement the digital transformation so that passengers can safely and securely benefit from the many opportunities of tomorrow’s mobility universe. ▬ About Siemens Mobility ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Trusted by our partners we are pioneering transportation, moving people sustainably and seamlessly from the first mile to the last. As a leader in transport solutions, we shape connected mobility. With digitalization, we enable mobility operators worldwide to make trains and infrastructure intelligent, to increase value sustainably over the entire lifecycle, to enhance the passenger experience and to guarantee availability. ▬ More Information on Smart Trains ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ► Automation in Railway: https://sie.ag/36nkfR8 ► Digital Stations: https://sie.ag/2MyyjjG ► The Future of Mobility: https://sie.ag/2M6xwq6 ► AI and Digital Solutions: https://sie.ag/391DGAU ▬ More Videos ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ► All Videos:    / @siemensmobilityglobal   ► Subscribe to @Siemens Mobility:    / @siemensmobilityglobal   ▬ Social Media & Website ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ► Website: https://www.mobility.siemens.com/ch/d... ► Facebook:   / siemensmobility   ► Instagram:   / siemens_mobility   ► LinkedIn:   / siemens-mobility   ► Twitter:   / siemensmobility
