A proposed battery-powered display for real-time arrivals at up to three STM, RTL, or exo bus stops in Greater Montreal.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-07 issue.

For: STM, RTL, and exo bus riders in Greater Montreal
Worth noticing: The maker says it will publish the screen and server software if the project closes; battery life is still being measured.

Field notes

The hardware is specified as a 7.5-inch, 800 × 480 black-and-white e-ink panel with a rechargeable battery, USB-C charging, and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi; both a stand and a wall-mount hole are described. Screen illustrations are explicitly labeled as example data, while battery endurance is still being measured and no shipping date is confirmed for the first units.
