Bike Sharing
Interface solutions for bike sharing stations.
Bike sharing docking stations and terminals are outdoor, unattended, and used by the public in all weather conditions. RNC solid-state switches provide sealed, vandal-resistant activation points that operate reliably with gloves and in rain, requiring zero interface maintenance across years of deployment.
