“The world's most valuable cargo travels in school buses.”
Alternative pupil transportation surveillance security camera systems can provide a management tool to document and possibly help to reduce the risk and liability when bad things happen on a school bus transporting alternative school students, juvenile detention transports, struggling teens, and Dropout Prevention Program youths at risk. 
For decades state, county, and local municipalities have been employing mobile video security surveillance camera systems on school buses to provide a verifiable record of events that may occur during student transportation activities, providing an added measure of oversight when required.


Choice of Mobile Video Solution Based On Applications
While many of the mobile video solution applications for alternative school students, juvenile detention transports, struggling teens, and Dropout Prevention Program youths at risk are similar regardless of what others prefer to designate them there are differences in what might be required for different applications based on the parameters of their service.



Troubled & Struggling Teen Transportation Bus Surveillance Camera Solutions SD4FHD & SD4FHW
For example, mobile video solution applications for student pupil transportation in the below listed require nearly identical features and system requirements:
  • Struggling Teen Transportation Bus Shuttle Security Camera System
  • Troubled Teens Transportation Bus Shuttle Surveillance Camera
  • Teenage Parent Transportation Bus Shuttle Security Camera System
  • Dropout Prevention Program Transit Security Surveillance Observation Camera
  • Remedial School Transportation Bus Shuttle Security Surveillance Observation Camera

Safety of Trouble Teen, Struggling Teen Dropout Prevention Student Passengers
A particular concern is the realized or perceived safety of the student passengers, who in many cases may be young or have special needs. It is important to be able to document the professional service and care provided to these passengers when in the care of the district. Claims of impropriety and abuse can be perceived by some who may have diminished faculties or are very young, often the difference between a perception of abuse can be cleared up by reviewing a video file of the incident from a non-biased expert witness, the mobile video DVR installed in the vehicle to insure the care provided the passengers upholds the high standards set by the district.


The SD4FHD & SD4FHW both have a 3-Axis Accelerometer version of a conventional mobile video solution of an Onboard Mobile Video Camera system with built-in Dangerous Driving Behavior features. The high-resolution school bus video cameras (1-4) are separated from the mobile vehicle DVR and can be positioned where needed to provide a much better bus camera field of view coverage. The 100% solid State mobile bus DVR is secured in a steel locking enclosure, to protect the SD memory card from driver tampering and criminal assaults. This version provides high-resolution images and long record memory storage on 64GB - 512GB SDXC memory cards for 30-400 hours of video recording storage depending on the number of cameras and DVR settings.

Safety of Alternative School or Juvenile Detention Student Passengers
It is important to be able to document the professional service and care provided to these passengers when in the care of the district. Claims of impropriety and abuse can be perceived by some who may have diminished faculties or are very young, often the difference between a perception of abuse can be cleared up by reviewing a video file of the incident from a non-biased expert witness, the mobile video DVR installed in the vehicle to insure the care provided the passengers upholds the high standards set by the district. The below mobile video solution applications for student pupil transportation, often require an enhanced version of the system that can provide an added level of control and oversight due to the additional accountability and risk involved with their specific application parameters.


  • Public Alternative School Bus Shuttle Security Surveillance Camera System
  • Public Court-adjudicated Youth Transportation Bus Shuttle Security Surveillance Camera
  • Public Juvenile Detention Transportation Bus Shuttle Security Surveillance Observation Camera
  • Public School Sports Activities Bus Security Surveillance system
  • Youth At-risk Transportation Bus Shuttle Security Surveillance Observation Camera
  • Last-Chance School Transportation Bus Shuttle Security Surveillance Observation Camera

    The above applications would benefit from the addition of a 4G/5G Cellular capability that would permit the management staff Live View from the school administrator's PC, or from iPhone & Android smartphones when there is a problem or alarm triggered by the driver in the case of a Driver Panic Button Alarm, or the system in the case of a Geo-Fence violation, Speed violation. The addition of GPS module would also permit Live GPS Tracking of the vehicles, Route tracing of past locations, speed of the vehicle, and On-Screen Mapping which could all be valuable tools for management of the vehicles in case of problems or events as many of these applications require out of town trips.





    Full HD 1080P High Definition Vehicle Security Surveillance Cameras

    The availability of cameras of such high resolution may make it possible for fewer cameras to provide more coverage and details than a larger number of cameras. Often there are midship cameras installed in the bus to look at the back half of the bus from the front as current industry technology D1 cameras have a very short Depth of Field, meaning you can only see good details about 10’ from the standard 2.8mm or 3.6mm wide-angle lens.

    When using HD1080P systems with HD Megapixel cameras, you will not require as many cameras as the images are 4x clearer, so even the front camera can be zoomed in to see the rear of the bus. Conversely, the rear camera is often just used to record activities going on in the last 3 rows of seats, and while it is pointed to the front of the bus you really cannot see any details as again the Depth of Field is short only about 10’. When using the HD Megapixel cameras you will now be able to see much more detail in the front of the bus and in some cases, you may not require the camera over the driver's shoulder that would document any inappropriate contact between the driver and a child.

    Wheelchair lift buses also require a separate camera to record the activities of the lift and lower of children to insure it is performed in a professional and safe manner. The standard front and rear HD Megapixel cameras will again provide so much Depth of Field that the Wheelchair lift camera can usually be eliminated.

    Some Stop Arm Camera solutions employ 5 - 7 cameras on the outside of the bus in a box, all aimed at specific target zones or travel lanes for cars passing the bus. All 7 cameras can be replaced with 2 Megapixel cameras one facing front and one facing rear that can not only capture the car tag of the vehicle passing the bus but can also capture the driver's image to help document they were the actual driver of the vehicle. Again the ability to zoom into the image and still have a clear image will provide a reduction in cost by requiring fewer cameras to provide the same coverage capabilities. As fines and penalties for Stop Arm Violation can be considerable, including loss of driving privileges or jail time for repeat offenses, those charged with these citations will often contract legal representation to have the charges dismissed and in these cases especially the more usable video evidence available the better.


    The SD4FHD is a Full HD 1080P High Definition mobile video solution supporting up to 4 high definition HD Megapixel cameras at 1920x1080 resolution, for image resolution 4 times higher than conventional industry-standard (D1) DVRs.

    Where the SD4FHD is particularly well suited, are those applications calling for much higher resolution than the industry standard D1 4-channel DVRs can support; Forward Facing cameras, Stop Arm cameras for the school bus, Car License Plate Capture cameras, and Bus Bully Child Assault cameras as they require much higher resolution in order to provide usable video evidence of a Criminal offense or juvenile assault incident.

    Built-in Driver Behavior recording aspects of the 3-Axis accelerometer, combined with the active driver alerts provide a mechanism to help reduce dangerous driving behaviors. Built-in GPS module, Remote Driver DVR Status Indicator, and massive 512GB memory storage capacity.
