Abstract: In an information distribution system for outputting information using an information output unit that is distributed from an information distribution unit, it is an object of the present invention to obtain an information distribution system capable of readily changing information in a short time to be outputted from the information output unit. In order to achieve this object, an information distribution system includes an output unit (10) for outputting information to be provided to a user, a distribution unit (11) for distributing a piece of information to the output unit (10) as the information to be provided, the piece of information being selected from several pieces of information prepared in advance, and an input unit (12) connected to the distribution unit (11) through a communication line and inputting a control signal to the distribution unit (11) through the communication line, the control signal selecting the information to be provided from the several pieces of information.

Abstract: A conventional display system carried on a railroad train has the problem that it cannot distribute image signal to the cars of the train when image information output means mounted in a lead car breaks down. Accordingly, a display system to be carried on a railroad train according to the invention includes: first image information output means provided in a given car in a train of a plurality of connected cars, for outputting first image information; second image information output means provided in a given car of said train, for outputting second image information; and display means provided in a given car of said train, for switchably displaying said first image information transmitted from said first image information output means and said second image information transmitted from said second image information output means.

Abstract: A system for presenting information to passengers in a conveyance, has a computer which stores operation diagram information; a storage medium which stores a plurality of advertisement data items to be presented to the passengers; and an information presenting device. The computer obtains an operation time in each operation section on the basis of the operation diagram information and identification data for identifying the conveyance, and selects and arranges some of the advertisement data items to generate presentation data for continuously presenting information to the passengers throughout a time period corresponding to the operation time. The information presenting device reproduces the presentation data corresponding to each operation section to present the information to the passengers in each operation section of the conveyance.
