We have more on cameras that we just haven’t shared as yet. But we will in due time. Why? Because there are improvements all the time and also creativity with innovation.
Security for vehicles and their cargo (Human, animal or inanimate) has been long in the market in various forms. The most recent and has now got more interesting is the CCTV on the go in the form of action cameras, dash cameras (in and out of cabin) and body cameras.
The technology initially started with the stand alone forward facing cameras mounted on the dashboard (later on Mirror). This was for on coming collision protection and incidences.
The Technology included functions such as on board/external memory card or both recording, G-sensor for orientation support, Motion Detection (for both stationary and on the move detection), 140 – 170 degree vision (some even wider today), Parking monitor, Loop recording, Resolution from 480p upwards, High frame rate from 15 to 60Fps, Multi lingual,
Then came the dual camera solutions
Then came with Wifi enabled and phone application. Generally IOS and android supported.
Then came GPS enabling and subsequently near real time remote monitoring via cloud and point to point mapped monitoring. (phone support via app in this segment is also now available.)
Driver attentive monitoring and lane straying features.
Satellite (GPS), tracking and real time (near Real time) Video tracking and verification.
Passenger attendance and tracking via RFID. (3d barcode, barcode, nfc, app attendance and many more methods possible too.) This could be the replacement of tickets and could be the enhancement of tracking beyond driver and passenger recognition and attendance for school and factory buses.
This has now come further in the development of feature rich solutions of protection and monitoring on the move.
For the private vehicle purposes to provide protection in disputes, high risk situations and more with the tracking right down to passenger.
On the commercial transport for passenger tracking of attendance RFID etc (reducing time lost going through passenger manifest for reassembly during pit stops, as well as initial embarking and disembarking.) GPS and Video Surveillance for tracking transport progress of the trip for passengers pick up by family members at destination. For company estimation update of travel and much more. Great for school buses as well. For parents and school peace of mind.
On fleet management of cargo and such for commercial goods movement, which includes oils and crops. The information support includes weight, speed and more.
Black box support for after the fact investigation, for any disputes and incidences.
Driver attention and stray detection monitoring with alerts to ensure better safety of the road captains.
The possibilities are getting to be endless. Reporting and accountability is possible at not so high a price today with the advancement of technology with availability.
And the features are getting richer by the day.
