Indygo Transit System Powered by SmallPC Waterproof Displays

IndyGo's Transit System: Powered by SmallPC’s Waterproof Displays

Public transportation systems are evolving, with cities increasingly turning to advanced technology to improve the efficiency and convenience of transit services. One example is IndyGo, Indianapolis’s public transportation provider, which has taken significant steps to enhance passenger experience and ensure real-time updates at its transit stops. As part of this upgrade, SmallPC has proudly supplied waterproof displays for use in IndyGo’s transit system, ensuring reliability and durability in a variety of weather conditions.

The Role of Technology in Modern Transit Systems

IndyGo's transit stops, especially those along its rapid transit routes, serve thousands of commuters daily. Providing timely and accurate information about schedules, delays, and service announcements is essential to maintaining passenger satisfaction. This level of service requires robust, dependable technology capable of performing in outdoor environments, where electronics are exposed to rain, dust, temperature fluctuations, and even vandalism.

Recognizing these challenges, IndyGo integrated SmallPC’s waterproof displays into its transit system to deliver up-to-the-minute information at key stops. These displays are designed to withstand Indianapolis’s variable climate, ensuring that information is visible and devices remain operational in extreme weather.

SmallPC’s Waterproof Displays: Designed for Durability

The waterproof displays provided to IndyGo are IP67-rated, meaning they are fully protected against dust and can withstand immersion in water. This makes them the perfect solution for outdoor public transit systems that must operate year-round, regardless of rain, snow, or intense sunlight.

Key features of the SmallPC displays include:

• Sunlight Readability: These high-brightness displays are easily visible in direct sunlight, ensuring that passengers can read real-time updates no matter the time of day.
• Temperature Resistance: The rugged design allows the displays to operate in extreme temperatures, ensuring reliability whether it’s a cold Indiana winter or a hot summer day.
• Anti-Vandalism Protection: Public-facing technology can be vulnerable to vandalism, but these displays come equipped with anti-shock and anti-scratch coatings to reduce the likelihood of damage.

Enhancing Passenger Experience

By deploying these waterproof displays, IndyGo has significantly improved the way passengers interact with the transit system. Commuters can now access real-time schedule updates, estimated bus arrival times, and other relevant information directly at the bus stops. This reduces uncertainty and wait times, allowing riders to plan their trips more efficiently.

IndyGo’s investment in rugged technology reflects its commitment to providing a seamless and modern transit experience. The partnership with SmallPC ensures that the transit system remains operational and responsive, even when faced with challenging environmental conditions.
