Helsinki Airport’s guidance display card

A new, personal airport guidance display card, developed by Agaidi, is currently being piloted at Helsinki Airport.  For the next month or so transfer passengers with a tight connecting time will be met at the gate and provided with the card, which will guide them quickly and easily to their boarding gate. 

The light and thin card shows personal, real-time flight information to passengers and keeps them updated about, for example, boarding times and estimated walking time to the gate.  The goal of the pilot is to optimize capacity utilization by managing real-time passenger flow and to locate passengers arriving late to the departure gate.  In addition, passengers will get information about services, such as cafés, restaurants and shops.

The airport display card is a small device that does not need wire charging and has an operation time up to three years.  It is easy-to-use and should provide robust and reliable communication.  Unlike smart phone apps, it offers equal service to all passengers regardless of personal devices that the passengers are carrying with them. www.helsinki-vantaa.fi
