OdinPSD is an innovative engineering company that manufactures modern, safe Platform Screen Door systems. We develop solutions that enhance safety and comfort in public transport.
To improve passenger safety and travel comfort on the Ankara Metro, we successfully delivered a fully-synchronised Platform Screen Door (PSD) system. By adding automatic doors between passengers and the tracks, OdinPSD guarantees maximum safety. Peak-hour crowding has been greatly reduced and boarding/alighting flows have become orderly and efficient.
All hardware and software meet European safety standards and were integrated with local engineering expertise. The system activates automatically as a train approaches and opens only in perfect synchronisation with the train doors, eliminating the risks of falling, pushing or accidental track access. Implemented in partnership with Ankara Metropolitan Municipality, this project is now a benchmark for modern urban transit infrastructure, and OdinPSD aims to lead similar projects in other major Turkish cities.
The PSD system we supplied places fully automatic synchronised doors between passengers and the track area, delivering maximum safety and solving congestion during peak hours.
After commissioning, passenger feedback and field observations confirmed a marked increase in safety and smoother boarding—even during rush hour. The PSD system blocks track access, prevents accidents and boosts energy efficiency.
Post-implementation surveys show over 95 % positive feedback.
Risks such as falling or unauthorised track entry have been eliminated.
