In a groundbreaking move at the end of 2023, HAPPY MONITORING Germany has launched the HAPPY COLIBRI II sensor system. This compact device is uniquely capable of being installed directly beneath train carriages, allowing for unprecedented access and monitoring of hard-to-reach areas on railway tracks.

Initial measurements have been successfully deployed along a 500-meter section of the Deutsche Bahn network, demonstrating the system’s potential to enhance safety and operational efficiency. Further installations are scheduled for later this year, promising significant improvements in the monitoring and maintenance of critical railway infrastructure.
