The display

The Flexpaper display is designed in such a way that it has sufficient resources available for rendering dynamic passenger information in LCD, and timetables or any other type of information such as advertisement to show on the E-Paper display.

 

Flexpaper is able to display real-time travel information, by using reliable communication technologies like 2G/3G/4G and a specially designed, ultra low energy consuming processor, controlled by an efficient protocol.

The E-Paper technology supports high resolutions of 1600x1200 pixels. The information on the display remains visible even at high temperatures and is impact resistant. The E-Paper technology also ensures that displayed information on Flexpaper remains visible even after the power supply is lost.

 

Flexpaper displays have been successfully implemented over thousands of RTPI bus stop displays in various European countries. This provides customers with the combination of proven, reliable technology and innovation.
