Abstract
By a method and an arrangement for guidance for instance within a conference centre (1) a number of guidance displays (2-8) are use that are arranged around the conference centre. According to the invention the displays are provided with clear text, e.g. the name of the activity going on in a room as well as an indication of the direction to the room. All the displays are controlled electronically by a central server that will, in case of a change, for instance a change from one room to another, automatically update all displays, whereby the directions will then be caused to guide the conference participant to the place where the activity is now taking place. The central server can partially or completely be an internet server.
