Passenger Information Display

GECO is a leader in the production of products and solutions for public transport passenger information, made with the latest technology and robust and reliable structures.

We specialize in producing the most advanced complex digital technologies for transmitting, receiving and processing data and information.

We develop integrated technologies for effective and targeted digital communication.

Thanks to our experience in this sector we are leaders in the production of information and communication systems for the transport sector (rail, metro, urban, airport and naval), we use intermodal coordinated information systems (both stationary and on-board).

The information systems we produce are unique in that they integrate software with LCD and LED screens and can be customized and modified according to the specific needs of the customer. Our experience allows us to create monitors with modern and attractive designs integrated with the latest and innovative technologies.

A key feature of our displays is that they are integrated with customized management software that we build entirely and that allows you to connect them together and manage them remotely, ensuring h24 support to our customers.

We use ChLCD (Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Display) technology, that is, a type of LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screens made with a particular type of liquid crystals called liquid crystals. This technology offers specific advantages over other types of LCD displays, such as low power consumption, increased visibility outdoors and the ability to preserve images even without power. They also allow wide viewing angles allowing good readability from different positions and angles, they can also quickly update the image without distortion or blurring evident. They guarantee excellent contrast and colour fidelity.

These are displays that require low power to operate, making them ideal for laptops or battery-powered devices. This makes them energy efficient and contributes to longer battery life of the devices that use them.

We guarantee the quality of products thanks to the high reliability of the components that our partners use for production, this ensures an excellent and long-lasting product operation.

In the applications of these technologies in the railway sector we operate exclusively in compliance with the EN 50155, CEI EN 50121-4 and CEI EN 60065 standards.

Our main objective is to improve communication between public transport and passengers by providing accurate and timely information. This helps passengers plan their journey more efficiently, reducing uncertainty and improving their overall experience. A functional information system is essential to provide public transport users with information on the nature and status of a service.

GECO is creating a system designed to improve the passenger experience by providing them with crucial information about their journey, including:

Orari di partenza e arrivo: The PID displays the departure and arrival times of the means of transport, allowing passengers to know when the vehicle is expected and when it will reach their destination.
Route and stops: il PID mostra il percorso del veicolo e le fermate intermedie lungo il tragitto. Questo aiuta i passeggeri a conoscere le fermate successive e a pianificare il loro viaggio in modo più efficace.
Avvisi e informazioni sul servizio: The PID shows the route of the vehicle and intermediate stops along the way. This helps passengers to know their next stops and plan their journey more effectively.
Connectivity information: The PID can indicate available connections with other public transport means, such as metro or bus stations, allowing passengers to plan their journeys and make smooth transitions.
Voice announcements: In some cases, the PID can be integrated with a voice announcement system that provides additional information via pre-recorded messages or real-time announcements. This is particularly useful for passengers with visual impairments or those who prefer to receive information in audio format.

GECO also deals with Public Address (PA) systems and General Alarm System IP (GAS IP) systems are two types of systems used for the dissemination of announcements and alarms in public or industrial environments.

Public address systems are used to transmit voice messages, announcements and music in public places such as stadiums, transit areas, shopping malls, airports, railway stations, government buildings and so on. These systems allow announcements to be broadcast through speakers strategically distributed throughout the environment, so that the information can be heard clearly by all people present. PA systems can be used for information, advertising, security and entertainment purposes by providing instructions, notifications, warnings or pre-recorded messages.

GAS IP are security systems that use Internet Protocol (IP) technology to monitor and manage alarm and safety functions in a wide range of applications.

These systems allow the connection of alarm devices and sensors via an IP network, allowing the transmission of alarm and control signals through the network itself. This allows for greater flexibility in installation and integration with other building security and management systems.
