Increasingly, people are discovering that onboard video surveillance is a good way to improve security on public transport for both drivers and passengers.

Thoreb markets its own video surveillance system (VSS) specially designed for public transport. The equipment is very reliable and has been installed in thousands of vehicles worldwide. The Thoreb VSS is integrated with the onboard vehicle computer, resulting in some unique benefits. Real-time information is saved together with the recorded pictures on a hard drive. In this way, information such as exact GPS time, route number, and position where the picture is being recorded is presented when pictures are evaluated.

Case - Lund

In the university town of Lund in southern Sweden, Thoreb has installed video surveillance cameras onboard buses. The bus operator is only allowed by the authorities to record pictures on certain routes. A solution where the driver had to turn the system on and off manually was first considered, but was not satisfactory. Instead Thoreb integrated the video system with the onboard vehicle computer to automatically control the video surveillance system based on time and location.
