Description
DART First State's Transportation Operations Manager Bill Hickox said, "Providing quality and convenient service to all of our riders is very important to DART First State.
DART First State's AVL real-time vehicle location information system is delivered through the US government's Global Positioning System satellites. The AVL SmartTrack system consists of data processors and software, and interfaces with rider amenities already in DART First State buses, such as digital readouts and voice annunciation of stops. With the AVL system, DART First State managers and dispatchers will be able to use the AVL SmartTrack system to easily monitor the bus fleet operations in real-time and to determine a vehicle's location and status. With the AVL system, DART First State operators and vehicles will also have a leading edge silent alarm feature to provide greater rider and operator safety.
Several potential customers have expressed interest in Mitsubishi Precision's system. Some will do more than simply install transmitters; they will lend receivers to visitors to use on the premises. Mitsubishi Precision, meanwhile, is working with counterparts worldwide to develop an international technical standard. That will ensure global compatibility and support increased mobility for people regardless of sight.
