"The Helsinki Regional Transport Authority will deploy a new on-board system supplied by INIT across approximately 1,700 vehicles, including buses, trams, metro cars, trains and ferries. According to the INIT press release, the project covers on-board software, vehicle hardware and associated services, with the aim of establishing a single technical platform for vehicle operations across all transport modes in the region."
"At the core of the solution is INIT's COPILOTcontainer, a Docker-based software platform that hosts all operational, driver and communication functions of the on-board computer. The platform uses container technology to run multiple software components independently on the same device, allowing different functions to be operated and updated separately. INIT states in its press release that the containerized architecture is designed to support modular software deployment and long-term maintainability within vehicle IT systems."
Helsinki Regional Transport Authority commissioned INIT to deliver a container-based on-board computer system for about 1,700 vehicles across buses, trams, metro cars, trains and ferries. The project includes on-board software, vehicle hardware and associated services to establish a single technical platform for vehicle operations across all transport modes. Container technology enables a unified, flexible, future-proof platform that allows rapid updates and functional expansion without disrupting passenger services. INIT's COPILOTcontainer is a Docker-based platform hosting operational, driver and communication functions, running multiple software components independently to enable modular deployment, long-term maintainability, ITxPT compatibility, open APIs, existing hardware interfaces and HTML5 passenger information applications.
