Abstract
In India rail transport occupies a prominent position in providing the necessary transport infrastructure to sustain needs of a rapidly growing economy. However, in terms of the reliability and sa fety parameters, we have not yet reached truly global standards. The main problem about a railway analysis is detection of cracks in the structure. Thousands of miles of railroad track must be inspected twice weekly by a human inspector to maintain safety standards. The project proposes a cost effective solution to the problem of railway track crack detection utilizing IR (Infrared) sensor assembly which tracks the exact location of faulty track which then mended immediately so that many lives will be saved. In this system, for continuous communication CAN (Controller Area Network) in ARM platform has been preferred. The data’s and acknowledgement signals are handled by CAN.
