Intel and GE Transportation have launched "superbrain" technology, designed to make train transportation smarter, safer and more efficient. According to the two companies, it will use data analytics and mobile technology to turn trains into "mobile data headquarters" that can gather information to improve transport operations, horsepower, emissions rates and fuel efficiency. The platform, called GoLINC, is being used in over 6,000 locomotives and is powered by Intel's 6th generation Intel Core i7 processor. In a press release, Intel said its new superbrain platform "will enable real-time analysis of data, enabling intelligent decisions on how best to move freight through trains, optimize performance for customers and reduce costs.
