Bristol’s legacy, shaped by visionary figures like Isambard Kingdom Brunel, continues to fuel today’s vibrant tech sector, making the city the perfect environment for ambitious ideas and breakthrough innovation.
As leaders in Intelligent Video, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning within the rail industry, at One Big Circle we’re fast-growing and passionate about bringing technological solutions to real-world challenges. On Tuesday, 7th October, we’re delighted to open our doors during Bristol Tech Fest’s Artificial Intelligence Day. Our event, running from 9:30 to 10:30am, is open to everyone interested in how AI and Machine Learning are revolutionising transport – from professionals and students to local businesses and industry experts.
Join us for an insightful session where academic research and innovative technology meet real-world applications. We’re excited to welcome back Professor Andrew Calway from the University of Bristol, who will deliver a thought-provoking talk on the latest breakthroughs in computer vision and data-driven innovation. Discover how our multi-award-winning AIVR (Automated Intelligent Video Review) technology is transforming the UK rail network, from data capture to machine learning-powered analysis – improving safety, efficiency, and decision-making for railway staff and passengers.
AIVR is an automated rail monitoring solution giving professionals access to rich lineside data – from track and infrastructure to vegetation management – all remotely and securely. Machine learning and AI are harnessed to assess conditions, detect issues, and alert engineers, empowering rapid, informed decisions without the need for trackside attendance.
Whether you’re keen to explore the future of AI, academic collaboration, or practical innovations shaping rail transport, this is a fantastic opportunity to learn from experts and connect with Bristol’s tech community, with insightful presentations alongside refreshments.
