Machines With Vision is a technology company that has developed pioneering solutions to the challenge of location and data positioning in rail, transforming how infrastructure owners and engineers perform maintenance.

Locating a defect on the railway can be a difficult task, using GPS to navigate to it can be impossible. It’s easy for a track worker to be directed to the wrong track or location so that the defect isn’t found and the valuable possession time is wasted.

We position asset data recorded by measurement trains automatically, precisely and everywhere, giving you an accurate picture of your asset condition and how it is changing over time. But this is only half the solution, we enable track workers to get to defects quickly, safely and with certainty using our mobile app, Fault Navigator. Fault Navigator works everywhere, even where there is no GPS signal and no mobile signal, with a precision better than 30mm; ensuring that you find the defect quickly and safely by using the time on site efficiently, fixing the defect rather than searching for it.

Our award-winning solutions have been deployed on the national railways in the UK, US, Germany and Switzerland.
