TRainCom
® HST transmits passenger information data in real-time and is used to support on-board PIS.
Today‘s passenger information systems in trains can display predefined upcoming station information. More innovative solutions, based on real-time information over a radio communication system, also show updated actual traffic situations, interchange options and other online information. In case of delays, alternative route connections can also be recommended. Far beyond simple passenger information, passenger infotainment systems also cover the entertainment aspects with all kinds of TV content to shorten sensed trip time. But it can also be seen as a measure to reduce vandalism in trains.
This outlook makes commuting with public transport for urbanites far more attractive, as journeys become more entertaining for passengers. Better advertising schemes also generate additional revenue for metro operators.
