Reliable Video Solutions for Modern Transit Operations

Public transportation agencies are under constant pressure to deliver safe, reliable, and efficient service while navigating aging infrastructure, budget constraints, and increasing accountability. Video surveillance has become an essential operational tool for transit systems—supporting safety, incident review, liability protection, and operational oversight across fleets and facilities.

IDIS Americas delivers end-to-end transit video solutions purpose-built for the demanding environments of bus, rail, and fleet operations. By combining high-quality cameras, rugged mobile recorders, and centralized video management software, IDIS helps transit agencies maintain clear visibility across vehicles and locations while simplifying system deployment and long-term maintenance.

Designed for the Realities of Transit

Transit environments present unique challenges. Equipment must perform reliably despite vibration, temperature extremes, inconsistent connectivity, and continuous daily operation. IDIS mobile cameras and recorders are engineered specifically for these conditions, providing dependable video capture onboard vehicles as well as across depots, stations, and other fixed infrastructure.

With support for both mobile and stationary deployments, IDIS enables agencies to standardize on a single video platform across their entire operation. This consistency reduces training requirements, simplifies maintenance, and improves system reliability.

IDIS DirectIP® technology further streamlines installation by reducing cabling complexity and configuration time. For agencies managing large fleets or phased rollouts, this approach minimizes downtime and lowers total cost of ownership while ensuring scalable system expansion.

Improving Safety and Incident Documentation

Clear, reliable video plays a critical role in protecting passengers, operators, and agencies alike. IDIS transit video solutions provide comprehensive coverage inside vehicles, at entry points, and across facilities, helping deter incidents while ensuring accurate documentation when events occur.

When incidents do happen, recorded video allows agencies to quickly review footage, validate claims, support investigations, and respond with confidence. This capability helps reduce liability exposure and supports transparent communication with stakeholders, law enforcement, and the public.

Supporting Operational Oversight and Efficiency

Beyond safety, transit video systems support everyday operational management. Supervisors and operations teams can use video to verify service conditions, review operational procedures, and support training initiatives. Video evidence helps confirm events such as passenger disputes, vehicle damage, fare-related incidents, or operational anomalies.

IDIS Solution Suite (ISS) provides centralized system management, allowing transit agencies to monitor video systems across multiple vehicles and locations from a single interface. System health monitoring, user access control, and efficient video retrieval help streamline daily workflows and reduce the administrative burden on IT and operations staff.

Open integration capabilities allow IDIS solutions to work alongside existing transit technologies, supporting flexible deployment within established infrastructure environments.
