ENVIRONMENT

LETEC is one of the main players in mobility and economic, social, and sustainable development in Belgium. With over 5,400 employees and 120 different professions, LETEC is a committed company whose members share a common goal: to improve, every day, the performance, user-friendliness, and sustainability of public transport services.

The Embedded Systems Department (DSE) develops two major components of the “SAM (Mobility Assistance Systems)” project: the design and production of the new version of the embedded platform (PFE), which equips TEC’s 3,000 buses and trams, as well as the Operation Assistance System (SAE), which allows various TEC departments to access data collected by the PFEs, in real time or delayed. These two solutions work in harmony.
