The first "prototype" of an indigenous "Rolling Stock Driver Training System" (RSDTS) was inaugurated by Delhi Metro, marking a significant step toward indigenization of network-operating technologies.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), in collaboration with Bharat Electronics Limited, also demonstrated the operation of a 'Super Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System,' which is being developed as a monitoring system for equipment and assets to ensure maintenance can be rationalised.
The DMRC and the BEL signed a Memorandum of Understanding in September of last year with the goal of developing the RSDTS, which will be useful for training metro and railway train drivers.
This will be the first universal train driving simulator produced in the country, with the ability to be customised for any metro or railway system.
