Systems that survived contact with the real world.

🚉 flagship · Indian Railways

Real-Time Railway Anomaly Detection

End-to-end CV system watching live station feeds for platform intrusions, yellow-line violations and track obstructions. I collected the video data on real platforms, annotated it, fine-tuned YOLOv8x, and squeezed it onto the edge with TensorRT + DeepStream, with ROI-based automated alerts.
