- Rail Vision, Israel Railways outline next stage of ongoing relationship.
- The ShuntingYard system is engineered for rail-yard environments, which present unique operational challenges compared with mainline operations.
- The collaboration with Israel Railways will allow both parties to evaluate the technology under real-world operating conditions.
As rail operators worldwide increasingly adopt advanced technologies to improve safety, efficiency and automation, real-world pilot programs are becoming an important pathway for validating new solutions under operational conditions. Reflecting this trend, Rail Vision (NASDAQ: RVSN) announced that it is advancing its strategic collaboration with Israel Railways through a new evaluation phase focused on deploying its ShuntingYard system within the national operator’s cargo division.
The announcement outlines the next stage in an ongoing relationship between Rail Vision and Israel Railways, building on prior installations of the company’s MainLine systems on locomotives operating within Israel’s national rail network. With that earlier deployment already in place, the two organizations are now moving forward with a one-month evaluation pilot designed to assess the performance and potential adoption of Rail Vision’s ShuntingYard product for cargo operations. Leadership from both organizations framed the initiative as part of a broader innovation strategy.
In parallel with Rail Vision’s progress, Israel Railways emphasized that the initiative aligns with its broader innovation strategy. “In recent years, Israel Railways has been leading many innovation processes and projects that enable the company to be at the forefront of global railway technology,” said Avshalom Elmaliach, Acting CEO of Israel Railways. “The collaboration with Rail Vision, and the innovative products resulting from it, will have a positive impact on railway safety both in Israel and around the world.” This endorsement reinforces the strategic significance of the pilot and highlights the growing alignment between the operational needs of Israel Railways and Rail Vision’s advanced safety technologies.
“The upcoming pilot marks another milestone in our mission to make every railroad yard as safe and productive as possible,” said Rail Vision CEO David BenDavid. “Our ShuntingYard product was developed collaboratively with operators, and the positive response from Israel Railways’ Cargo Division underscores the tangible value our solution is already delivering to customers in the United States. We remain committed to our strong partnership with Israel Railways and are excited to move forward with the pilot.”
The ShuntingYard system is engineered for rail-yard environments, which present unique operational challenges compared with mainline operations. Rail yards often involve frequent stop-and-go movement, complex switching maneuvers and reduced visibility conditions, all of which increase the risk of accidents or inefficiencies. The system combines electro-optical sensors with real-time artificial intelligence to provide continuous situational awareness, enabling locomotive operators to detect obstacles and hazards even in low-light or adverse weather conditions.
The collaboration with Israel Railways will allow both parties to evaluate the technology under real-world operating conditions. During the one-month pilot, the companies aim to gather detailed performance data and operational feedback from the cargo division to better understand how the system integrates with existing workflows. Such evaluations are a common step in railway technology adoption, where operational reliability and safety standards require rigorous testing before broader deployment decisions are made.
If the evaluation phase proves successful, Rail Vision and Israel Railways plan to explore potential deployment pathways designed to deliver measurable improvements in safety, operational efficiency, and maintenance cost savings. Such outcomes align with the broader industry trend toward digitization and automation in rail operations, where advanced sensing and analytics tools are increasingly used to reduce human error and improve system reliability.
Beyond the immediate pilot, the collaboration illustrates Rail Vision’s commercial strategy of expanding existing customer relationships by introducing additional products into established deployments. The fact that Israel Railways has already installed the company’s MainLine system suggests a level of operational trust and provides a foundation for testing complementary solutions. This incremental expansion approach can help shorten sales cycles by leveraging proven relationships and real-world validation of earlier technologies.
Rail Vision’s broader business focuses on developing artificial intelligence-based railway detection and monitoring technologies tailored specifically to the rail industry. The company’s solutions integrate electro-optical imaging, thermal sensing, and machine learning algorithms to identify obstacles, monitor track conditions, and provide early warnings to operators. According to company materials, these systems aim to enhance safety, increase operational efficiency, and reduce costs for railway operators while contributing to the long-term goal of advancing autonomous train operations.
The company positions itself at the intersection of transportation safety and advanced analytics, targeting both passenger and freight rail networks that must manage growing traffic volumes and complex operational demands. Rail Vision’s technology has been showcased by Israel Railways at international events such as CES 2026, highlighting real-world deployment of its solutions and reinforcing its strategy of demonstrating practical use cases alongside ongoing innovation.
As an early commercialization-stage company, Rail Vision continues to pursue partnerships, pilot programs and collaborative deployments as a pathway toward broader market adoption. The latest collaboration milestone reflects a progression from initial installations toward expanding functionality across additional operational environments, potentially strengthening the company’s positioning within the global railway technology sector.
