With 50 per cent lower power consumption and a battery life of up to 10 years, Teleste’s e-paper is revolutionising bus passenger information displays

On 17 September, Teleste announced the expansion of its information display product range with the launch of a unique new series of outdoor e-paper displays. These battery- or solar-powered displays are designed for extremely low power consumption and can reduce energy consumption by up to 50 per cent compared to other battery-powered e-paper solutions on the market. Depending on system configuration and operating characteristics, battery life can reach up to 10 years. This enables public transport operators to deliver real-time passenger information across all public transport routes, including remote and temporary locations.

These displays are designed for continuous outdoor use and incorporate Teleste’s patent-pending smart energy management architecture and bonded e-paper structure, delivering extremely low life-cycle costs and excellent outdoor readability, whilst maintaining a compact design. The displays support wireless content updates via mobile networks. Thanks to e-paper technology, the content remains visible even without a continuous power supply. E-paper displays are available in a range of sizes and can be deployed as standalone information points or integrated into broader passenger information systems.

“E-paper is becoming a key technology for delivering real-time passenger information,” said Claudio Borrello, Business Director of Display Solutions at Teleste. “Through our pioneering e-paper display solutions, we focus on what matters most to our customers: long battery life, Teleste’s signature quality, user-friendly and compact design, and ease of integration.”

These displays integrate seamlessly with Teleste Hub, Teleste’s centralised content management platform. Teleste Hub enables operators to manage e-paper displays and other passenger information technology via a single platform, creating consistent operational processes across different display types and deployment scenarios. For operators with existing content management environments, Teleste also provides APIs to enable the integration of e-paper displays into their existing ecosystems.
