Platform Screen Door (PSD) technologies have become one of the indispensable components of modern metro systems. PSD solutions supported by artificial intelligence, IoT sensors and smart automation systems not only provide safety but also form the foundation of smart cities of the future.
Today, platform doors are equipped with advanced sensor technologies, machine learning algorithms and real-time data analysis. Thanks to these technologies, the system learns passenger behavior, predicts traffic density in advance and optimizes energy consumption.
AI-Based Security: Smart camera systems detecting abnormal behavior
IoT Sensor Networks: Real-time data collection and analysis systems
Energy Management: Smart power consumption and sustainable operation
Predictive Maintenance: Pre-failure maintenance and system optimization
In smart cities of the future, platform doors will not only be a security element, but also an important part of the city information network. PSD systems integrated with 5G connectivity, cloud computing and edge computing technologies will collect critical data for city management.
New generation PSD systems are being made capable of operating with renewable energy sources such as solar energy and wind energy. Additionally, thanks to advances in material technologies, lighter, more durable and recyclable platform doors are being produced.
The development of Platform Screen Door technologies is completely transforming metro stations. Features such as hologram information panels, voice assistant technologies and personalized passenger experience will become standard in the near future.
With the rapid development of metro lines in Turkey, the demand for PSD technologies is also increasing. Projects implemented in major cities such as Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir also strengthen domestic technology development capacity. Important steps are being taken especially in R&D investments and technology transfer.
"By 2030, smart platform doors will become standard in 80% of metro systems worldwide and will revolutionize urban transportation."
Platform Screen Door technologies not only meet today's needs but also lay the foundation for smart cities of the future. With the perfect combination of sustainability, security and passenger comfort, PSD systems will continue to be an indispensable element of modern transportation.
As the architect of Platform Screen Door systems, OdinPSD has taken significant steps in urban-transport safety and efficiency.
