A rail vehicle for public transport includes at least one door for separating two inner spaces of the rail vehicle and a lintel for the door. The lintel has at least one electronic information system for passengers.

The present invention is adapted to the technical field of communication, and provides a stop announcement system and a method thereof. The stop announcement system comprises: at least one platform beacon disposed on at least one stop site of a transportation means for identifying a position message of the stop site, and sending a message of position change according to the position change of the transportation means relative to the stop site; and at least one stop announcement device disposed on the transportation means for receiving the message of position change and sending a corresponding stop announcement message when the transportation means moves into a range of a preset communication distance of the at least one platform beacon; wherein the stop announcement message at least comprises a prompt message of entering into the stop site and/or a prompt message of stopping on the stop site and/or a prompt message of leaving the stop site. By virtue of this, the present invention achieves timely and accurately stop announcement in operation of the transportation means.

A computer having a processor and memory storing instructions executable by the processor. The computer is programmed to: determine a total trip parameter associated with a destination of an occupant of a vehicle; determine a progress parameter since an outset of an occupant trip; and control a light output of a status assembly, wherein the output represents the parameters.

The present invention relates to a contactless intelligent customer-service system applied to rail transit and an application method thereof. The system includes: an intelligent customer-service platform server, an intelligent customer-service interface server, a system switch, a station maintenance workstation, and an intelligent passenger service terminal, where the system switch is connected to each of the intelligent customer-service platform server, the intelligent customer-service interface server, the station maintenance workstation, and the intelligent passenger service terminal; and the intelligent passenger service terminal provides, through AI interaction and intelligent speech, a passenger with intelligent services that include information inquiry and display of various facilities inside a station, information inquiry of convenient surrounding facilities, information inquiry of a train operation status, and emergency help. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the advantages of intelligence, diversification, personalization, high efficiency, comprehensive service information, comprehensive service functions and the like.

A passenger-oriented transfer synchronization optimization method and a passenger-oriented transfer synchronization optimization device, in which minimizing average waiting time of passengers is taken as an optimization objective, and constraint conditions are determined based on the transfer-related information; an arrival time and a departure time of each train is adjusted on an original train diagram of lines to be adjusted, and an adjusted train diagram is determined; and the trains on the lines to be adjusted are controlled based on the adjusted train diagram. Urban rail transit train diagrams for complex lines can be made, and no manual participation is required when adjusting the train diagrams, which can not only improve the adjustment efficiency, but also ensure the adjustment effect by avoiding errors caused by manual adjustments. The transfer efficiency of passengers can be improved when making transfers, and all-day transfer synchronizations can be optimized.

A light strip device to be secured on or in a window jamb of a window opening of a door leaf of a rail vehicle boarding system in a nondestructively releasable manner, wherein the window opening has a window pane. The light strip device has at least: a) one light strip which is provided with a number of light sources arranged in a mutually spaced manner in rows, and b) one holding and installation profile in which the at least one light strip can be received and which is provided with an attachment to the window jamb, wherein c) the holding and installation profile has at least one light through-opening such that light generated by the light sources can penetrate the light through-openings, and the holding and installation profile is opaque with the exception of the light through-openings or d) the holding and installation profile is at least partly transparent.

A controller is provided that can receive or determine at least one first location associated with at least a first vehicle belonging to a vehicle group; receive or determine at least one second location associated with at least a second vehicle; and determine a route or lane from a plurality of possible routes or lanes on which the vehicle group is located based at least partly on the at least one first location and on the at least one second location.

According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for tracking occupancy on a transit system is provided. The present invention may include receiving passenger information for passengers boarding a public transit system comprising one or more cars; counting the passengers within each of the cars of the public transit system based on the location of each of the passengers; identifying, based on the location of each of the passengers, whether each of the passengers is seated or standing; and displaying, based on the counting and identifying of the passengers, the current occupancy of each of the cars.

A vehicle monitoring system and method receive a selection of at least one vehicle-of-interest onboard a vehicle system moving along one or more routes in a transportation network. The at least one vehicle-of-interest is disposed on the one or more routes in the transportation network. One or more locations of the at least one vehicle-of-interest are monitored from onboard the vehicle system. The one or more locations of the at least one vehicle-of-interest are displayed on a display device disposed onboard the vehicle system. A determination is made whether to change display of the one or more locations of the at least one vehicle-of-interest on the display device based on an update to a notified state of the at least one vehicle-of-interest being received onboard the vehicle system.

The present invention is adapted to the technical field of communication, and provides a stop announcement system and a method thereof. The stop announcement system comprises: at least one platform beacon disposed on at least one stop site of a transportation means for identifying a position message of the stop site, and sending a message of position change according to the position change of the transportation means relative to the stop site; and at least one stop announcement device disposed on the transportation means for receiving the message of position change and sending a corresponding stop announcement message when the transportation means moves into a range of a preset communication distance of the at least one platform beacon; wherein the stop announcement message at least comprises a prompt message of entering into the stop site and/or a prompt message of stopping on the stop site and/or a prompt message of leaving the stop site. By virtue of this, the present invention achieves timely and accurately stop announcement in operation of the transportation means.
