Touchscreens for Transport

Whether installed at a bus or train station, or utilised within an airport or ferry terminal, touchscreens for transport will help to streamline and enhance the user experience for both customers and staff.

Zytronic will work with you to develop a PCAP transport touch solution, tailored to your individual business needs.

Customer-facing transport touch solutions

Transport touch solutions can take various forms, each providing essential travel information:

• Digital signage.
• Information boards.
• Ticket dispensers.
• Wayfinding points, complete with interactive maps.
• Security and surveillance hubs.
• Self-check-in desks.
• Customer feedback kiosks.
• Onboard, in-transit entertainment.

There are a number of benefits when it comes to the installation and use of these touch solutions within the transport sector:

• Enhanced user experience – providing customers with an innovative way to interact with essential transport processes, such as ticket bookings.
• Increased advertising revenue – pop-up and banner adverts can be programmed to appear on your touch solution. For instance, airport touchscreens could display future flight prices and current deals for customers checking themselves in.
• Independently operated – the intuitive nature of our touchscreens for transports allows staff members to focus on other, more complex work.
• Increases customer agency – users can book their own tickets, find their own way around a train station, airport or ferry terminal and provide independent feedback without the influence of staff members.
• Streamlined processes – use of our advanced PCAP technology provides easily accessible touch solutions that can be relied upon to provide customers with information, even in remote, unmanned areas.
• Instant update communication – essential travel information can be easily communicated with customers. For example, train station touchscreens can alert passengers to delays and cancellations instantly.

Touchscreens for the transport sector can be utilised by staff as well as customers. Management touchscreens for internal use can take a number of forms:

• Schedule management touchscreens.
• Digital logistics and fleet management touchscreens.
• Accident management.

• Communication and management of drivers, pilots and skippers.
• Speed monitoring and management.

Management touch solutions provide your business with a range of benefits:

Zytronic’s capabilities

At Zytronic, we can provide a number of touch solution enhancements to provide you with a bespoke touch solution, optimised for the transport sector:

• EMI and RFI shielding – ensuring no electromagnetic or radio interference with your customer-facing or management touch solutions, even in high-frequency areas.
• Durability and reliability – all of our touch solutions remain fully functional, even when installed outdoors or in remote locations.
