India’s first-ever Indigenous Automatic Train Supervision System (i-ATS) has been developed by a joint team of DMRC and Bharat Electronics Limited, under the government of India’s ‘Make in India’ and ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ initiatives for metro rail transit systems.
The i-ATS system was formally launched on the Red Line from the Operations Control Centre in Shastri Park by Manoj Joshi, the Secretary of Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.
With this milestone, India is the 6th country now joining the elite list of a few countries in the world with their own ATS products.
ATS is a computer-based system, which manages train operations. This system is indispensable for high-train density operations such as the Metro, where services are scheduled every few minutes.
