  • Abstract
    This paper describes the design of a prototype system that uses HD Radiotrade technology: Interactive FM radio messaging system (InFoRMS). The InFoRMS system can send real-time digital messages to remote and mobile LED marquees. In addition to its broadcasting capabilities, InFoRMS uses an addressing scheme that enables the display of messages in selected offices, floors, or rooms in a building. Thus, not only can the InFoRMS system be helpful in emergency situations, it can also be highly valuable as a method of informing people of everyday news.
