COPPILOT

COPPILOT is a safety critical railway system, which controls the opening and closing of platform screen doors at a metro station. These platform screen doors are installed to keep traffic flowing safely. Developed by CLEARSY, this system has been installed, among other locations, in the Paris metro, at several platforms: station Invalides and Saint-Lazare Line 13. It is currently being installed in the subway in Sao Paulo, where a dozen stations will be equipped during 2010/2011... COPPILOT is a system that complements existing metro equipments, consisting of a controller and various sensors. The originality of this system relies in its ability to work with non fully automated metros. The whole system is safe and meets railway standards. To ensure system safety and automation CLEARSY has used the formal B method.
