Detection of tread defects on moving trains is an area currently undergoing constant development. Use of the B169 committee findings will make it possible to define the technical specifications required for such equipment. This document sets out the minimum specifications to be met, characteristics of components used to build the system and demands related to algorithmic processing. This document is a theoretical operational blueprint and list of principles. In addition this report sets out the environmental conditions for operation as well as a set of principles for calibration and maintenance. "+ "
