Answer 1

Answer:

B. Al-based surveillance system to prevent elephant deaths in railway tracks

The Gajraj System aims to use AI-based surveillance to prevent elephant deaths in railway tracks, ensuring safer travel for elephants and minimizing accidents. Gajraj System is a kind of Intrusion Detection System or IDS. It is built to use the existing optical fiber cable (OFC) as sensors to identify elephant movements near railway tracks and alert locations to station masters, loco pilots, and control offices. The Indian Railways has chosen the Northeast Frontier Railways to pilot this program and implement this new, cutting-edge technology in some of the worst affected areas.
