This paper presents the two sub-systems of the first holistic system for autonomous obstacle detection (OD) in railways, the on-board vision system and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) vision system for object localization (OL) on and near the rail tracks. The main goal of such a holistic system is to enable long-range detection of obstacles on the rail tracks ahead of the train where the UAV-based O...
