Smart digital solutions that bundle data and simplify processes are needed to ensure that individual services mesh smoothly, thereby improving the passenger experience and customer satisfaction. On the Mobility+ display in Hall 7.1c, 34 companies and transport associations are presenting their supporting mobility services, including some world innovations. Exhibits range from on-demand driving systems, mobility apps and vehicle pooling platforms to solutions for covering the first and last mile.
Passenger demand for flexible transport is on the rise. As a result, on-demand and pooling services are becoming increasingly important in local public transport. They support regular rail and bus services and even out availability and timetable problems– whether in urban centres or sparsely populated rural areas.
Siemens Mobility: solutions for sustainable and seamless transport
On the Mobility+ display Siemens Mobility is offering visitors an overview of the company’s software products, such as software for on-demand transport, intermodal journey planning and mobility as a service, as well as online ticketing solutions. Siemens Mobility aims to show how it is revolutionising mobility for everyone and making sustainable transport more seamless and accessible. Detailed information on the extensive software portfolio is available on stand 203 in Hall 7.1c and on the main stand in hub27 (Hall 27, Stand 230).
KIRA: on-demand shuttle with an autonomous driving system
Driverless vehicles are crucial to expanding public transport and implementing the mobility transition. This is especially true in times when drivers are in short supply. Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund Servicegesellschaft demonstrates the progress already made by this technology with its KIRA shuttle (the acronym stands for AI-based regular operation of on-demand driverless transport). The electric shuttles are equipped with a Mobileye Drive™ autonomous driving system which combines information from camera, radar and lidar sensors with intelligent data from the roads. The rules required for self-driving are provided by a mathematical safety model. The shuttles can be booked via an app.

Via Technologies: Optimised public transport and satisfied passengers
Via Technologies is presenting its Citymapper for Cities concept. The platform enables transport companies and cities to combine a Mobility-as-a-Service solution with continuous analysis of passenger data. Real-time updates and seamless direct communications between those responsible facilitate the optimisation of public transport. Precise traffic information also increases passenger confidence in public transport.

Better Mobility: one app for all modes of transport
The Mobility Broker platform from Better Mobility GmbH helps cities and local transport providers develop networked and sustainable mobility services. All public mobility services – from e-scooters to taxis – are networked on a multimodal platform. Customers benefit from a standardised search, digital booking and integrated billing.

Vesputi: Mobilitybox for cross-border public transport
Digital tickets are only used for just over a fifth of the approximately 60 billion journeys made by public transport across Europe. In order to increase this proportion, Vesputi has developed its Mobilitybox, a standardised interface that connects transport companies with national and international companies. Companies can use the Mobilitybox to integrate bus and train tickets into their app or website.

MOTIONTAG: real-time data for comprehensive mobility analyses
MOTIONTAG software provides detailed real-time data on how people move around a city – regardless of how many transport modes they use. It can be incorporated into various apps as a white-labelled app. The route and time-specific data helps transport service providers develop flexible and efficient services.

Optibus: strategic planning makes public transport more efficient
Optibus helps transport operators to collect data and generate a single, reliable data source. Using AI-based predictive timetables, demand optimisation and GIS-based planning, timetabling can be streamlined and service reliability improved. This enables transport companies to save costs, improve services and increase passenger satisfaction.

Axon Vibe: rewards system for sustainable train travel
Axon Vibe is presenting an AI-controlled mobility and rewards platform which is also part of Deutsche Bahn’s Regio Guide app. Frequent travellers can use the app to receive a digital voucher for a free coffee, for example, or discounts at station restaurants in the event of minor delays.

goFlux: integrating carpooling in public transport
goFLUX, based in Cologne, aims to motivate people to carpool to work with its app. Company employees can use the platform to offer and find rides. This encourages networking among the workforce while simultaneously reducing private transport. Drivers also benefit from a financial incentive if they offer people a lift.

intelliTicket: geo-locating passengers
intelliTicket’s new hardware solution automatically detects the presence of passengers and analyses their location to within a few centimetres. It enables transport companies to make automatic ticket billing part of their operations and send personalised service information to the end devices of specific groups of passengers. The system requires neither network coverage, internet, GPS nor passengers to connect their devices.
