Rail Vision Enters the Quantum Transportation Market with Strategic Acquisition Agreement
Rhea-AI Summary
Rail Vision (Nasdaq: RVSN) signed an agreement to acquire 51% of Quantum Transportation, a quantum computing and AI company holding an exclusive sub-license for a pending quantum error-correction patent from Tel Aviv University. The transaction is expected to close in late December 2025–early January 2026, subject to customary conditions.
Upon closing Rail Vision will issue shares equal to ~4.99% of current outstanding capital to exchanging shareholders and provide a convertible loan of up to $700,000 at 8% interest, repayable within 24 months. The combination targets quantum-AI synergies for railway safety, anomaly detection, and predictive maintenance.

Ra’anana, Israel, Dec. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rail Vision Ltd. (Nasdaq: RVSN) (“Rail Vision” or the “Company”), an early commercialization stage technology company seeking to revolutionize railway safety and the data-related market, today announced the signing of an agreement for a strategic transaction to acquire
Quantum Transportation holds an exclusive sub license, for rail technologies and platforms, for an innovative pending patent application in quantum error correction owned by Ramot, the technology transfer company of the Tel Aviv University. This IP and additional know-how addresses critical challenges in noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices by enabling efficient, real-time decoding of surface code errors, significantly reducing computational overhead compared to traditional methods and supporting scalable fault-tolerant quantum computing.
Through this transaction, Rail Vision and Quantum Transportation aim to combine quantum-AI based intellectual property (IP) protection and innovation with Rail Vision’s advanced vision and railway-safety technologies.
This strategic combination is expected to create meaningful technological synergies, enhance Rail Vision’s current and future product lines, accelerate innovation, and support long-term value creation for stakeholders.
Upon the closing of the Acquisition, Rail Vision will issue ordinary shares representing approximately
Additionally, upon the closing of the Acquisition, Rail Vision will extend a convertible loan of up to
Quantum Transportation’s sub-licensed, machine learning-based universal decoder pending patent represents a potential breakthrough in quantum error correction, addressing the inherent noise in qubits that limit scalable quantum computing. This technology, developed by leading computer science experts and protected as patented IP, is code-agnostic, noise-aware, and scalable. This enables it to adapt seamlessly across various hardware platforms and code sizes and empowers quantum hardware companies and labs, particularly small- to medium-sized entities, to research and select optimal error correction schemes without in-house teams.
By utilizing this IP for transportation applications, including railway, Rail Vision aims to unlock new capabilities in anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, and autonomous rail operations, capitalizing on the growing quantum computing market projected to drive exponential advancements in transportation.
