Wavetrain Systems Agreement with ÖBB for its AI-powered LCWS Supporting Continued Expansion Across Europe

17 Mar 2026 15:19 CET

Wavetrain Systems AS, a subsidiary of Nordic Technology Group AS (NTG), is
pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with ÖBB (Austrian
Federal Railways) for the trial of its advanced acoustic based Level Crossing
Warning System. The system will be used as part of a formal evaluation and
approval process, supporting potential future deployment on the Austrian rail
network. This agreement represents an important milestone in Wavetrain's
continued expansion across Europe.

Why This Matters
Improving safety at level crossings remains a key priority for European rail
infrastructure owners. By initiating a trial with ÖBB, Wavetrain is entering a
central European market with a large and diverse level crossing portfolio. The
trial represents a low risk, high value opportunity to demonstrate performance
under demanding operational conditions, strengthen Wavetrain's European
reference base, and support assessment of the solution's suitability for
broader deployment on the Austrian rail network. Successful validation will
contribute to wider European cross acceptance, supporting Wavetrain's
continued expansion across Europe.

Technology and Innovation
The trial leverages Wavetrain's latest AI and Machine Learning enhancements to
its acoustic detection platform, validated through rigorous testing and
CENELEC SIL2 certification. The solution is designed for rapid installation
directly at the level crossing. With no moving parts, the system offers
reduced lifecycle cost and reliable performance across varying traffic and
environmental conditions. These capabilities build on experience gained from
previous European trials and approval processes.

Executive Commentary
CEO of Wavetrain, Pål E. Bratlie, said:

"Working with ÖBB experts on this trial is an important step for Wavetrain. It
reflects growing interest among leading European infrastructure owners in
solutions that improve level crossing safety while remaining easy to deploy
and operate in large scale. This initiative supports our continued expansion
across Europe and reinforces our strategy of entering new markets through
structured trials and close cooperation with customers."
