This project is done with Aim towards addressing the issue by developing an automatic Railway track detection system integrating an infrared IR crack Sensing module based on GSM technology by which information about the location of the crack can be conveyed to the central Location enabling immediate attention and intervention of the Maintenance personals. Manual detection of tracks is cumbersome and not fully effective. A recent study revealed a Fact that over 25% of the track length is in need of replacement Due to development of cracks on it. The Indian railway has one of the largest railway networks in the World, over 1, 15,000 km in distance.
