Abstract

The technical requirements for minimum rail gauge and platform clearance at station emplacements are one of the important aspects to support railway operations, given the large number of train accidents caused by rail gauge and platform clearance that are not following applicable regulatory standards. This IoT-based Gauge Hybrid platform is used to make it easier to test rail gauge and platform clearance on station emplacements. The process of testing the gauge of the rail and platform clearance in this study was carried out by utilizing a rotary encoder to detect the dilation and narrowing of the width of the railway track. The VL53l1X lidar sensor detects the distance and height of the platform clearance on the station emplacement. The platform gauge hybrid control system is to use an Arduino Uno microcontroller that is connected to a web application on a laptop by utilizing the Wemos D1 Mini for sending data from sensor readings. Detection of path widening through the rotary encoder is by integrating linear block bearings with a spring system. The Platform Gauge Hybrid is designed to be operated on a 1067 wide R54 rail with a measurement accuracy rate of 99.29%.
