From the powerful Prover Station platform to the seamless integration of COTS technology and AI-driven automation, our solutions are designed to meet today’s challenges and unlock new opportunities.

Discover Prover Station

Prover Station is a web-based Platform specifically designed to meet the rigorous verification and validation needs of the rail and metro signaling industry. With decades of expertise behind it, Prover Station streamlines the creation, management, and verification of formal proof projects while integrating digital twins for comprehensive testing and training.

What Prover Station Offers:

• Formal Verification: Prover Station organizes formal verification tasks into Proof Projects, guiding you from initial specifications to final validation. By identifying and correcting logical errors early, it reduces the risk of costly mistakes. The process is fully customizable to meet your safety and performance standards, ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements.
• Digital Twin Aggregates: Prover Station enables the creation and management of digital twins, which is essential for real-time system monitoring, analysis, and optimization. It aggregates multiple digital twins into a unified model, providing a comprehensive overview for design, testing, and decision-making.
• Integration and Flexibility: Whether you prefer a cloud-based or on-premises solution, Prover Station adapts to your needs. It integrates seamlessly with external simulators and hardware via MQTT or OPC-UA protocols, offering flexible web interfaces and automation through APIs.

Prover Station is built to enhance the safety, efficiency, and reliability of signaling systems in the railway and metro sectors. From proof projects to ongoing operations, it provides the essential tools you need for success.

Join us on Wednesday, September 25th, from 12:00 to 14:00, for a live demonstration during our mingle event. See Prover Station in action and connect with our team.

The transformation into open and interoperable signaling solutions via COTS

COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) technology is playing a vital role in the modernization of railway signaling systems. Unlike traditional, custom-built systems that are costly to maintain and difficult to upgrade, COTS offers ready-made solutions that are easier and more affordable to integrate. This flexibility allows for faster deployment and better adaptation to new technologies.

The transition to COTS is crucial for updating outdated signaling systems. With COTS, railway operators can quickly adopt new technologies, reduce reliance on single vendors, and achieve higher safety standards more efficiently.

While challenges such as legacy systems, slow standardization, and integration complexities remain, COTS provides dynamic, cost-effective solutions that simplify management and updates. By adopting COTS, you can reduce costs, accelerate development, improve maintenance, and enhance system reliability—key factors in maintaining the highest safety standards in modern rail systems.

We will demonstrate how Prover’s products seamlessly integrate with COTS systems using a Schneider PLC at our booth. Stop by and see it in action!

Advancing Railway Signaling with AI

We are pushing the boundaries of railway signaling design automation by integrating AI with Formal Methods and Digital Twins, solidifying our commitment to “Engineering a Safer World.” Current industry practices are outdated, and our approach has already delivered significant improvements in efficiency and automation. By incorporating AI, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), we aim to make complex tasks like requirements engineering, design, verification, and safety more intuitive and efficient.

At InnoTrans, we will showcase how AI is transforming railway signaling. Engage with our AI tools and discover how our innovations are bringing new levels of automation and safety to the industry. Check out Prover Labs, our space and community where you can try out AI-driven innovation and be part of shaping the future.
