TrainPAD Entertainment System
The TrainPAD® is a system conceived for entertainment specifically designed to be installed on board of trains.
The TrainPAD® system, from the hardware point of view, is composed by four main elements:
1) Distributed individual device called ‘TrainPAD®’;
2) Centralized Server, called ‘Multimedia Server’;
3) Centralized management console ‘TrainPAD® Console’;
4) Connection network based on high speed, multi-gigabit Ethernet Switches with ‘Power over Ethernet’ support for the cabled network, or on gigabit Wi-Fi ‘MiMo’ Access Points (optional).
The TrainPAD® device is based on the Android Operating System and has the same principle of functioning of the tablet that each one of us has in our own pocket. Thanks to this, it is a ‘smart’ and ‘friendly’ Human interface as a mobile device.
The Applications (APPs) are executed directly by the TrainPAD® devices and are supported by a centralized ‘Multimedia Server’.
The Multimedia Server includes the storage for the Multimedia contents, the connections to external systems (like ‘PIS’, ‘PA’ and other systems you can find on board) and interacts with the TrainPAD® Console in use by the crew.
The TrainPAD® Console is a centralized management console through which the train crew can send: live audio, pre-recorded audio, live text, pre-recorded text, images or videos to a selected TrainPAD®’s seats and can configure or change the configuration of the travel; check the registration into the Entertainment system of the travelers and other management activities.
Additional TrainPAD® Console can optionally be installed for instance in the car restaurant for the management of the restaurant’s services.
The Multimedia Server can be optionally equipped with 3G/4G router Mobile and Wi-Fi Access Point.
The Standard APPs available in the TrainPAD® System are listed here following:

CAMellia Video Camera product family
CAMellia has been designed by implementing and pushing on the right features required by the different applications:
– Videosurveillance
– Rear View
– Door View
– Track View
Each kind of installation is based on specific requirements that allow to satisfy the relevant needs and functionalities, including a proper mechanical optimization.
Main Technical Specifications
Image sensor
- High quality image ‘backlight’ sensor, for better sensitivity in low light conditions (about twice that a non-backlight sensor).
- Resolution of the Image Sensor: 1920 x 1080 (‘fullHD’).
- Pixel pitch: 2.9 x 2.9 micron.
- Frame rate: 60 frames per second.
Optics
Wide choice of Optics to meet the application needs which the camera is destined in its different declinations (for example: internal for ‘Video surveillance’ and ‘Track View’, external for ‘Rear View’ and ‘Door View’).
Depending on the needed application, it is possible to guarantee different angles of view till to 180° (‘Fish eye’) thanks to the availability of special miniaturized optics that can be applied as options.
Images Processor
- Image processor equipped with hardware and ‘ISP’ (‘Image Signal Processing’) dedicated for the optimization and processing of high-performance images with high quality level and ‘Codec’ hardware ‘H264’ + ‘HEVC’ (‘ H265‘).
- Based on 32-bit ‘dual core’ ARM A9® processor with Linux Operating System.
- In detail, the Image Processor has the following characteristics:
Image Format
- Processable resolutions: up to 1920 x 1080 (‘fullHD’).
- Processable frame rates: up to 60 frames / sec.
Image processing functions
- Horizontal ‘Mirror’.
- Vertical ‘Flip’.
- Rotation in 90° steps (‘landscape’ and ‘portrait’ mode).
- ‘On Screen Display’ (‘OSD’) with the possibility to insert date, time and title (option).
- ‘Motion detention’ with alarm signal programmable via Ethernet port (option).
- ‘Object detention’ (option).
Image compression and transmission functions
- ‘H264′ compression.
- ‘H265’ compression.
- ‘RTSP’ protocol for ‘streaming’ of the images.
Possibility to generate up to three ‘streaming’ streams simultaneously with different resolution configurations, ‘frame rate’, codec and compression factor.
The “Multimedia RECORDER” is a family of high performances and high capacity network Video and Audio Recorders designed for high quality and high frame rate image recording for surveillance inside of trains, trams, metro and any rails vehicles.
The “Multimedia RECORDER” family
is based on rugged, State of the art, Solid State Disk Storage (SSDS) technology.
The modular construction and the wide availability of SSDS capacities and technologies, allow to tailor-made the product at exactly the application requirements.
Solid State Disk Storage (‘SSDS’)
– Depending on the product model, one, two or four ‘Bays’ supporting one, two or four ‘Solid State Disk Cartridge’ (‘SSDC’).are installed
– Each ‘SSDC’ can be independently removed and replaced.
– A ‘SSDC’ supports up to five ‘Solid State Disk Unit’ (‘SSDU’) having a 2.5” form factor.
– A ‘SSDU’ can have a storage capacity of 1 Terabyte or 2 Terabyte. Accounting all possible combinations, the Storage capacity of the “Multimedia RECORDER” family spans from 1 Terabyte to 40 Terabytes with different intermediate sizes.
