Pupil Transportation

For over a decade, Safety Vision’s school bus video systems have been helping school districts safeguard people and property:

Onboard, our school bus video cameras enhance pupil safety by deterring bad behavior. If an incident does occur, the onboard surveillance cameras capture the action, and the recorded data can be used to identify who is at fault. Recordings also can be used to disprove fraudulent claims against drivers or riders.
Outside the bus, our exterior-mounted SideVision™ camera can help identify stop-arm violations, recording license plate information to aid in the apprehension and prosecution of violators. Like our other products, the SideVision school bus safety camera is custom designed to enhance driver vision and improve passenger safety and public safety.

The Safety Vision advantage in mobile video surveillance systems is choice: We offer you a depth of expertise in both mobile analog videocassette recorders (VCRs) and mobile digital video recorders (MDVRs). We also offer more than a decade of expertise in both product types. A brief overview follows:

In 1994, we used our experience in mobile rear-vision camera systems as a springboard into the school bus safety market, first as a distributor for an analog VCR. And in 1999, with years of industry savvy and knowledge of customer preferences to guide us, we introduced our own VCR—the Observer®. A proven performer, the Observer continues to appeal to users who are comfortable with the features, performance, and price of analog systems.
In 1997, we began distributing on-bus DVRs. We acquired leading mobile DVR maker Prima Facie in 2001; and in 2003, we unveiled our own RoadRecorder™ 6000 MDVR. This digital video recorder features up to 10-camera capability to optimize onboard and exterior fields of view; patented encryption technology for superior forensic integrity and court-admissible evidence; and an inexpensive, upgradeable hard drive that is removable for playback of recorded video and audio data on a dedicated notebook- or desktop-PC workstation.
In 2005, we introduced our most recent mobile DVR offering, the RouteRecorder® 1000—a single-camera, dual-channel, entry-level digital video system. Our lowest cost “analog to digital” upgrade option, the RouteRecorder is also a drop-in DVR replacement for major brands of analog-based VCR systems.

Other recent technology updates include SafetyNet™, a wireless busyard data collection network solution. Soon to come: one 2-camera and two 5-camera mobile digital video recorders with a variety of optional features. These features include wireless Ethernet, infrared, and USB ports as well as a PCMCIA card slot.
