Estraffic Co., Ltd. is engaged in road transportation projects such as intelligent transportation systems, toll collection systems, multi-lane free-route systems, and bus operation management systems, as well as railway transportation projects such as railway signaling systems. It was founded in 2003 and is headquartered in Seongnam City.
QNX OS for Safety, currently being adopted in various industries such as rail transportation, industrial control, automotive, and aerospace, is an RTOS for embedded systems and has achieved functional safety standards ISO 26262 ASIL D and IEC 61508 SIL 3 ratings.
With pre-certified safety-oriented QNX OS software, Estrafic can develop systems that meet railway functional safety standards such as IEC 62279:2015.
“QNX OS’s safety expertise in mission-critical systems will help Estrafic build an automated railway protection system that prevents human errors,” said Dhiraj Handa, vice president of BlackBerry Asia Pacific. “We hope this will serve as a stepping stone for the further development of Korea’s driverless train system.”
“BlackBerry’s extensive portfolio of pre-certified solutions has enabled us to reduce system development costs,” said Kim Gwang-hee, team leader of the eStraffik project. “We plan to use the QNX OS for safety as the foundation platform for the construction of the Korean Urban Railway Signaling System (KTCS-M) for Korail’s unmanned train operation in the future.”
