Helping Engineers Specify the Right Technology for Bus Applications
From onboard passenger information and driver interfaces to bus stops and transport hubs, every application places different demands on the technology behind it.
FORTEC UK works with OEMs, engineers and system integrators to help select the right display, embedded computing and power technologies for their application. We consider the complete system requirements, including visibility, operating environment, processing performance, connectivity, power, mechanical integration and long-term availability.
Our experience includes supporting customer bus and passenger information projects with technologies such as:
Passenger Information Displays
Litemax SPF2800 28″ Display
An ultra-wide display format suited to passenger information applications where route, service and journey information needs to be clearly presented within restricted installation spaces.
Litemax ITRP Panel PCs
Integrated display and computing platforms provide another option for onboard and passenger information applications, combining the display and processing platform within a single unit.
High-Brightness TFT Displays & Optical Bonding
For onboard and outdoor applications where changing ambient light can affect readability. High-brightness displays can be combined with optical bonding, protective glass and PCAP touch according to the application.
Low-Power Passenger Information
Litemax IEPA-1330-RKC3-WGLD ePaper Platform
A dual 13.3″ colour ePaper solution particularly suited to bus stops and passenger information installations where power consumption is critical. Its ultra-low power operation also creates opportunities for battery and solar-assisted deployments.
Embedded Computing
Axiomtek tBOX200 Series
A rugged transportation computing platform for applications including onboard passenger information, communications, vehicle data and connected bus systems.
AAEON BOXER-8621AI
Adds edge AI capability for more demanding applications, opening opportunities for onboard video analytics, intelligent surveillance and other AI-enabled transport systems.
Power
The display and computing platform is only part of the system. FORTEC UK can also help engineers select appropriate DC/DC, AC/DC and DIN rail power solutions according to whether equipment is being deployed onboard the vehicle or within bus stops, shelters and supporting infrastructure.
More Than a Product Selection
The advantage for an OEM or integrator is access to these technologies through one UK partner.
Rather than specifying individual components in isolation, we can help customers consider how the display, computing and power requirements work together, and select technologies appropriate for the environment, performance requirements and expected lifecycle of the project.
From initial specification through to long-term supply and lifecycle support, we help engineers make the right technology choices for reliable bus and passenger information systems.
