  • Patent number: 11731676
    Abstract: Systems and methods for railway asset management. The methods comprise: using a virtual reality device to recognize and collect real world information about railway assets located in a railyard; and using the real world information to (i) associate a railway asset to a data collection unit, (ii) provide an individual with an augmented reality experience associated with the railyard and/or (iii) facilitate automated railyard management tasks.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 10, 2022
    Date of Patent: August 22, 2023
    Assignee: Amsted Rail Company, Inc.
    Inventors: Evan Weiner, Brad A. Myers
