ABSTRACT:
For traffic routing in a walking zone in public buildings, complexes of buildings and traffic zones, which have a plurality of destinations interconnected by traffic routes there are arranged along the traffic routes continuous visual orientation lines which each are associated to one destination, end at the associated destination and can readily be distinguished from each other. The orientation lines are equipped with univocal indicator features pointing towards the associated destination. It is preferably effected by remote control that the orientation lines are composed of display devices which are selectively activated in sections. Remote control is performed in particular by a central control center via a network to which also the control units are connected, which activate the display devices. At easily accessible sites there are installed information terminals where users are identified and user data can be retrieved, especially in combination with an information system outputting user-specific information at selected places of the buildings, traffic routes and destinations. Identification of a user can be performed with the aid of electronic data carriers such as transponders, which can be polled in a contact-free manner.
