PHYTEC

IVU Traffic Technologies AG is a leading supplier of IT systems for planning, operating and optimizing transport and logistics processes. Almost 30 years of experience in developing hardware and software systems for 300 public transport companies has made IVU the market leader for public transport solutions as well as other IT segments: monitoring truck fleets, setting up retail networks in geo-marketing (GIS), and electronic voting procesing.

IVU Traffic Technology AG first approached PHYTEC in 2004 for design services and turn-key solution for a computerized public transport system. PHYTEC's expertise in all essential areas required for successful completion of this project within an aggressive timeline made PHYTEC a natural choice for IVU. Within one year, PHYTEC provided a full turn-key solution: the i.box.

The i.box is computerized public transport control and collection system. Our phyCORE-PXA255 and phyCORE-PXA270 System on Module, implemented in a Panel-PC, serves as the core logic in the i.box. PHYTEC also handled all aspects of project management involving various third parties, including providers of a WinCE Board Support Package (BSP) and external housing. The i.box integrates into a single package an interactive vehicle-based collection, ticket printing and traffic control communication system.
