A clearance detection system for a railway vehicle includes a cross beam, an upright column connected to two ends of the cross beam through an adjusting block, an inclined support connected to the upright column and the cross beam for supporting the upright column and the cross beam, an electric cylinder arranged on the upright column and the cross beam, a telescopic guide rod being provided on a guide rail of the electric cylinder, a connecting plate fixed at an end of the telescopic guide rod, and a PC connected to a controller of the electric-cylinder. The telescopic guide rod is movable along the guide rail of the electric-cylinder under movement of the electric-cylinder, adjusts the position of the industrial camera, and detects the contours of different types of rail vehicles.

The present disclosure relates to a train type identification method and system, and a security inspection system and system. The train type identification method includes: continuously photographing a to-be-inspected train by using a linearity camera in motion relative to the to-be-inspected train, and generating a plurality of train sub-images; splicing the plurality of train sub-images to acquire a train image of the to-be-inspected train; extracting at least one train characteristic parameter from the train image; comparing the at least one train characteristic parameter with a prestored train type template; and automatically determining a type of the to-be-inspected train based on a comparison result.

A gap blocking system includes a loading platform having a gap separating a first portion of the loading platform from a second portion of the loading platform. A ride vehicle is coupled to a transport extending through the gap. A guardrail assembly having a plurality of guardrail units is coupled to the first portion, where the guardrail units are configured to transition between a first position and a second position. The guardrail units are configured to block access to the gap when in the first position. The ride vehicle includes an engagement feature configured to interface with an individual guardrail unit of the guardrail units to selectively transition the individual guardrail unit from the first position to the second position. The individual guardrail unit is configured to permit the ride vehicle to occupy a guest-accessible position adjacent to or on the loading platform in the second position.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for monitoring vehicles traversing a dedicated roadway that includes an at-grade crossing. In some implementations, a system includes a central server, a gate system, and sensors. The gate system provides access to an at-grade crossing for vehicles. The sensors are positioned in a fixed location relative to a roadway, the roadway including the at-grade crossing. Each sensor can detect vehicles on the roadway. For each vehicle, each sensor can generate sensor data and observational data from the generated sensor data. Each sensor can determine a likelihood that the detected vehicle will approach the at-grade crossing by comparing the likelihood to a threshold. In response, each sensor can transmit data to the gate system that causes the gate system to allow the autonomous vehicle access to the at-grade crossing prior to the autonomous vehicle reaching the gate system.
