Airport Communication, Environmental Control, and Detection Technologies

As a major supplier of real time Information Systems and Software, KeTech Systems has developed the UK’s first Passenger Information System utilising an approved ATOC ‘Darwin’ real-time data feed.

KeTech’s system intelligently manages Darwin data along with additional data sources to provide a variety of dynamic paged displays.

The system utilises high contrast TFT displays to provide the following fully configurable information:

• Service Information
• Calling Points
• Journey Progress
• Next Station Departures
• Delay Time/Expected Time of Arrival
• Reasons for Delay
• London Underground Route Service Indication (Rainbow Display)
• Corporate Information
• Safety Information

This unique system has been developed with input from key industry stakeholders First Hull, Angel Trains and ATOC. Their input has ensured a system design which is fit for purpose – delivering reliable and up to date information to rail passengers throughout their journey.

KeTech’s Principal Technical Consultant Mike Dixon says “Key advantages of the system are its ease of installation and efficient architecture, which is based upon KeTech’s highly successful CIS products. KeTech regards this system as a game changer within the UK PIS market”.

Following the success with First Hull Trains, a number of additional features are already in development.
