Passenger Information Displays

SHOWING UP-TO-DATE INFORMATION

SWARCO FUTURIT, world leader in the development and production of traffic signal heads and LED-based Variable Message Signs (VMS) understands, that being accurately informed, in a timely manner and on the spot is of crucial importance to the passengers travelling on public transport.

CLEAR & EFFICIENT DYNAMIC DISPLAYS

SWARCO FUTURIT has developed numerous LED Passenger Information Displays for Airports, Railway Stations, Bus- and Tram-Terminals. The product range includes main station signs as well as platform displays and on-board-screens. The combination of the latest LED technology and communication interfaces by a skilled and experienced international team provides smart and highly versatile displays with excellent readability. Our displays can easily be incorporated to public vehicle and station management systems. SWARCO FUTURIT’s LED Passenger Information Displays are highly flexible. They can display flight, platform, tram and bus numbers with destination and arrival/departure information and real time data. We can also combine a wide range of messages and graphics including voice announcements and vehicle detection.

DESIGNED FOR THE PURPOSE OF INFORMATION

SWARCO FUTURIT LED Passenger Information Displays are designed to meet demanding environmental conditions for outdoor applications as well as for semi-outdoor and indoor applications. Semi-outdoor and Indoor Displays are composed of lower mechanical protection and provide information with lower luminosity and a wider viewing angle. Generally Outdoor Displays are composed of higher mechanical protection and provide information to passengers with higher luminosity and decreased viewing angle.
