Digital bus station system debuts in Beijing

www.chinanews.cn 2005-01-21 16:17:33

(Jan 20, 2005) It is the digital bus station signboard near the Liangma
Qiao of Beijing. The digital bus station, an investment and building
project of the New World Group (NWG), is currently in the midst of
comprehensive testing. This bus station signboard made use of many
information technology items, such as computer control technology,
wireless network communication technology and LED display control to
build a complete information service platform through the collection,
transmission, analysis, processing, combination and release of signals.
Besides traffic information, this system has the ability to predict both
the location and the arrival time of buses. In order to facilitate blind
people who travel by bus, this system also incorporates a system for
guiding the blind. According to NWG, once the system testing is
successful, it will invest in building 6000 digital bus stations in
Beijing.
