PAPIS (Passenger Announcement & Information System) is the end-to-end audio-visual passenger information system for metro trainsets. It combines multi-language programmable announcements with onboard and platform displays for route maps, next-stop and service status, driven by real-time train position. Envision TechWorks designs, manufactures and validates production-ready PAPIS hardware in India under ISO 9001:2015, Built in India / Make in India.
How it works
On a metro trainset, PAPIS coordinates onboard audio announcements with visual passenger information so riders hear and see consistent messages as the train moves. Onboard and platform displays show route maps, next-stop and service status, with sunlight-readable options where platforms need them. The system interfaces with train control and signalling feeds so messaging stays aligned with real-time train position.
Capabilities
A production-ready PAPIS programme typically covers the passenger information chain from announcements through displays and integration with train systems.
Programmable multi-language audio announcements for metro trainsets, so riders receive clear passenger information across languages used on the network.
Onboard and platform displays for route maps, next-stop and service status, with sunlight-readable options where station environments demand them.
Interfaces with train control and signalling feeds for real-time, position-driven messaging across audio and visual channels.
Designed, manufactured and validated in India in an ISO 9001:2015 facility, with hardware built to EN 50155 — production-ready, Built in India / Make in India.
Compare
PAPIS is the onboard trainset Passenger Announcement & Information System. Station PIS is the station and platform passenger information display system. Many metro programmes evaluate both: PAPIS for the trainset audio-visual chain, and Station PIS for platforms and concourses.
