TEL-AVIV, Israel: RunWize, the leading Runway Management Solution by Xsight Systems, was selected by the Procurement and Production Directorate of the Israeli Ministry of Defense (MOD) to be installed on the Israeli Air Force runways.The MOD chose RunWize after evaluating number of available technologies. This is the major procurement by an Air Force of an automated runway management system with a FOD (Foreign Object Debris) detection capability. The RunWize installation will help improve runway safety, availability and efficiency by accurately and truly revealing the runway's situation. The Xsight system is expected to be fully operational within a few months.
RunWize, based on FODetect, is an automated FOD solution collocated with runway edge lights and is the most powerful solution available today. RunWize automatically and continuously scans operational areas or defined hotspots and uses sophisticated image and radar processing algorithms to monitor runway conditions. Whether its day or night, the system learns the surface and by applying artificial intelligence the system helps watch out for FOD, wildlife and runway status, and even during inclement weather conditions.
