Features of Zacti's "Bus Watching Camera Solution for Shuttle Buses
Zacti's proposed watch-keeping camera solution features a video solution with triple-check functionality.
(1) Ultra wide-angle camera detects the entire bus
Ultra wide-angle 360° omnidirectional camera is used to capture a wide range of images of the entire bus with the minimum amount of cameras installed, and to detect people. High-quality images from a proprietary image processing engine are used to monitor the bus at all times. The system can be easily installed on existing buses for pick-up and drop-off.
The number of passengers on and off the bus is counted by AI image analysis.
The number of passengers on and off the bus is counted by AI image analysis of images taken near bus entrances. The number of passengers is displayed on a monitor installed in the driver's seat in an easy-to-understand manner, and an alarm warns the driver until the number of passengers reaches zero after the bus starts to disembark (the alarm continues even after the bus engine stops).
(3) Real-time remote confirmation of video images inside the bus
Real-time distribution of video images inside the bus during pick-up and drop-off, and the results of person detection after the engine has been stopped. The status inside the bus can be checked from a staff member's smartphone or from a PC in the office, enabling remote monitoring of the bus.
The above features and system configuration are the proposed specifications at the time of this announcement and are subject to change as a result of future trials and in accordance with the guidelines for safety device specifications to be established by the government within this year.
