AMCON.BUS
Optimize the Operations of Your Bus Fleet – with AMCON.BUS
With AMCON.BUS, we equip your buses with all essential functions for ticket sales, onboard inspection, and information services for both passengers and drivers—inside and around the vehicle. Whether you need a modular vehicle solution or a compact system – thanks to the hardware independence of the AMCON.SYSTEM, we’ll find the right setup for your needs.
Ticket Sales and Onboard Inspection
Our system enables easy and fast sales of all types of tickets directly on the vehicle. Both contactless payments and cash are accepted, offering passengers greater flexibility. Beyond conventional ticket sales, inspection is becoming increasingly important.
With AMCON.BUS, all common ticket/media types can be validated. In addition to VDV-KA, UIC, and MOTICS, all relevant inspection logics are readily accessible.
Passenger Information Services
Passenger demand for real-time information has steadily increased in recent years. Public transport acceptance rises when customers are placed at the center of their journey. By connecting the AMCON.BUS solution to real-time data interfaces, passengers can track when and where the next stop is and whether they will make their connection.
The following VDV interfaces, which can be connected to regional data hubs, are available:
VDV 454 – AUS/REF AUS
VDV 453 – DFI (Dynamic Passenger Information)
VDV 453 – ANS (Connection Assurance)
VDV 453 – VIS (Visualization)
Driver and Control Center Communication
Effective communication between drivers and dispatch/control centers is crucial for smooth operations. AMCON provides multiple communication options. In addition to classic telephony, drivers can send and receive voice messages, images, or PDF documents.
Depending on the situation, different communication methods may be more appropriate. This flexibility ensures that drivers and the control center are in close contact and can quickly respond to changing circumstances, issues, or disruptions.
