What is the most common scene you encounter at airports? After a short period of thinking, you would probably remember the moment people look at wide screens to find their gates. Have you ever thought about the technology behind these screens? Let's start with some basic definitions to show these screens' significance.
What are the screens in airports called?
The screens in airports are called flight boards.
What is a flight board?
Flight boards are the digital screens located at airports to inform passengers about important flight data.
What is Flight Information Display System (FIDS)?
Well, the technology is not only related to these flight boards. There is certainly more than that; flight boards are just the tip of the iceberg. The system that enables the flight boards to function is called Flight Information Display System (FIDS). The Flight Information Display System (FIDS) is the primary system to offer communication between airport management and passengers. The system has a crucial function for both airport employees and passengers.
How Does Flight Information Display System Works?
FIDS is an intelligent digital signage solution that distributes real-time flight-related information through monitors, software, and infrastructure. A well-designed FIDS actively supports an efficient operation and helps build a smoother travel experience for passengers. FIDS is designed to display details about the flight, check-in, gate, and carousel information.
