Do have any information on reports of people who had a device hacked via Bluetooth? Most people usually have it turned on either for a smartwatch or for wireless headphones or devices like that. Also that part of the video seems to be from the company that they got the equipment from.
On another video i saw recently where an American who does transit related YouTube videos posted about the layout of elevator floor numbers on the TTC, someone pointed out that they are labeled with the highest floor being either the ground floor or the ones above the entrance
Quite an easy topic to search; the flaws & security incidents of Bluetooth are well documented.
Whatever. I get that you have concerns and your welcome to them. There is no need to use the app if you have them.
From the website it was first designed in 2020, but i don't really see why it has to be anything special. When you connect to an elevator that uses it from the outside you get either an up or down button or both depending on what level your on. Inside the elevator you get the floor buttons which do change what they show in the elevators, also on another page you can get the buttons for open door and close door, on both screens you will also have the alarm button. I don't really see why it needs to be more complex than that.
The UX is pretty good and gets the job done, it's just the background and font that look atrocious.
I think there are some back end customizations as well because the picture on the website for the article about Persson international airport shows their logo at the top of the screen. Right now because the TTC is only using it in five stations Kenedy, Kipling, Finch, Vaughn metropolitan centre and Union they probably haven't made any changes yet. It's like with the screens in the newest buses they still have the generic information in them as the TTC is working with the company that makes them to make some changes to the information displayed but they also wanted to wait until they had more on the road before they do that.
Screens are slowly being updated with the new graphics. They decided to go with the MTA style signs with the left side showing route info and the right showing advertisements. So far it’s just TTC ad’s like you see on the TR.
If they replace that right screen with the time to the next 3 stops as well any connecting route, that would be a big step on matching Europe setup. If there are connecting routes at the coming stop, a new right screen should show up telling riders when X or X's will arrive at that stop as well the next 2.
10 years is pretty long feels like make work at some point
