HNC

Expertise in railway applications

 

Die Steuerung und die Bedienung von Systemen der Reisenden Information sind wichtiger denn je.

HNC hardware and software supports these systems on stations and in trains.

HNC train stop sensors

Reliable detection in all weather conditions

 

 

HNC train stopping sensors detect the different states in which a train can be in the station.

The recorded states are forwarded via various interfaces in order to then operate acoustic and visual systems for passenger information (PIS) at the station. Our sensors are used to switch advertisements and displays, activate loudspeaker announcements or intelligently manage lighting systems.

The use of various technologies ensures effective detection even under adverse conditions. Furthermore, special adaptations can be realised.

In the future, LED lights embedded in the floor will visualize the status of a train for passengers. Red flashing LEDs warn passengers to be careful when the train arrives, and a green light allows access once the train has stopped. The train phases are detected by an HNC sensor and passed on to the visualization system.
