A mirror that also watches out for you.
RAILFLECT replaces mechanical rear-view mirrors with an exterior camera and a cab monitor — with no dependence on network or cloud connectivity.
Full vision, no blind spots.
RAILFLECT is a digital mirror system for rail rolling stock: it replaces mechanical rear-view mirrors with an exterior camera and a cab monitor.
Each installation combines two exterior cameras — left side and right side — with two corresponding cab monitors, showing real-time, full-screen video with no overlaying of multiple sources.
System architecture
Exterior camera + cab monitor
Captures the side/rear view in real time, mounted in place of the mechanical rear-view mirror, and displays it full-screen on the cab monitor.
Fail-safe on loss of video
Detects an interruption in the incoming video feed in under 2 seconds and switches to a black screen — instead of holding the last frame, which could be misleading.
Automatic reconnection
Retries the connection with increasing back-off, with no manual intervention and no system restart, as soon as the signal is restored.
