As transportation operators continue to pursue more sustainable, energy-efficient infrastructure, FORTEC UK has expanded its ePaper display portfolio with the introduction of the LITEMAX IEPA-1330-RKC3-WGLD. Designed specifically for Passenger Information Systems (PIS) and smart transportation applications, the new dual-screen platform enables engineers to rethink how passenger information is deployed in environments where power consumption, installation flexibility and long-term operating costs are becoming increasingly important.

Unlike conventional LCD displays, ePaper technology consumes power only when displayed content changes. This fundamental difference enables battery-powered and solar-assisted deployments, significantly reducing energy consumption whilst opening opportunities for installations where access to mains power is limited, costly or impractical.

As public transport authorities continue investing in smarter, more connected infrastructure, ultra-low power display technology is becoming increasingly relevant. Bus stops, temporary transport hubs, remote locations and smart city projects all demand reliable passenger information without the infrastructure costs traditionally associated with continuously powered digital signage.

The LITEMAX IEPA-1330-RKC3-WGLD has been developed to meet these evolving requirements. Featuring dual 13.3-inch colour ePaper displays with a combined resolution of 3200 × 1200 pixels, it delivers crisp, high-contrast information that remains clearly visible in direct sunlight without requiring a backlight. The reflective display technology provides excellent readability across wide viewing angles whilst dramatically reducing power requirements.

Designed for outdoor transportation environments, the platform incorporates a rugged aluminium enclosure with IP65 environmental protection and IK10 impact resistance, ensuring dependable operation in demanding public spaces. Integrated wireless connectivity enables remote content updates, whilst optional NFC functionality supports future interactive passenger information applications.
