End-to-end video surveillance solutions for
Bus applications
Right Picture.
Right Place. Right Time.®
Integrated end-to-end solution with video
surveillance, passenger information and
communication & control systems
Public transportation bus services are typically operated on routes with predefined bus stops according
to a published public transportation timetable. On buses, the driver is usually the only ‘operator’ on
board and has the responsibility not only for being on time, but also the responsiblility for the safety
and security of the passengers. This means that the security systems and passenger information
systems have to be easy to use and optimized for operations while the bus is on the move.
Buses constitute one segment within the Teleste solution offerings for mass transportation.
We provide complete turnkey solutions for buses, ensuring security and safety of the passengers.
In addition, we also provide wireless solutions and passenger information systems (PIS) with all
the features required by our customers. Our decades of experience with video technologies and
telecommunication systems is also advantageous when robust telecommunication networks or
onboard entertainment systems are needed for buses.

Communication & Control
Video surveillance and security systems
Our communication & control is based on open system
architecture with standard IP/Ethernet interfaces and
dynamic IP addressing. The communication backbone inside
the vehicle provides high bandwidth, while at the same time
it provides online communication between the vehicle and the
wayside system. Examples include passenger information,
diagnostics and position information. The automated
configurations and software updates can be done efficiently,
thanks to Adaptive Network Routing and Dynamic Domain
Name Service (DNS). Open IP-based system architecture
with standardized interfaces allows easy connection of the
system with other systems, such as diagnostic, passengercounting and ticketing systems. The system is also future
proof and can be easily expanded.
Our on board video surveillance system (CCTV) is modular
and uses an environmentally-hardened IP network video
recording solution specifically designed for trains, metros,
trams and buses. The on-board Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
cameras can be located conveniently to cover all passenger
areas, including all exit and access doors. Typical cameras
are based on 360-degree viewing angle lenses and are
supported by high-definition image sensors.
Passenger Information system
Our IP-based, modular passenger announcement system is
flexible for a variety of environments. It allows scheduling
of automated announcements and/or conductor messages
which can be transmitted to the passengers at any time.
If the system is provided with audio/video entertainment/
infotainment systems, announcements can be configured to
override any entertainment system which might be active.
Our system allows flexible and fast configuration of any
type of announcements.
Display systems
Our display offering consists of a full range of displays
including front, side and internal displays supporting all
available technologies from LED to TFT and LCD technologies. Our display systems are IP-based and offer a variety
of features and benefits such as excellent visibility, servicefree and vandal-proof design, low life-cycle costs and easy
maintenance. The user interfaces are made simple and intuitive, which makes them end-user-friendly. The layouts and
fonts are easy to modify due to the open XML-based control
interface. We make tailored display solutions based on our
end-customer needs and preferences.
Our mobile Network Video Recorder (mNVR) allows remote
connection by any user accessible via the on-board video
management system (VMS) or through the VMS system
installed on the wayside. By remote connection, different
functions can be provided to access the recorded data or
live camera feeds, including video search per criteria (GPS
position/vehicle ID/ NVR ID/ alarm tags/etc.). Emergency
phones can be integrated as part of the video surveillance
system and they can also be directly connected to the
wayside OCC.
Wireless offload
We offer various different wireless technologies for the
offload of the mNVR, which are based on existing proven
solutions already in operation with mass transportation users.
Entertainment/Infotainment systems
We can offer different options to provide IP-based entertainment wirelessly or through a cable network. Our stateof-the-art TFT, LCD and LED displays enable the enjoyment
of video entertainment with superb quality. The digital
headphone panels also allow easy selection of MP3, CD or
video audio channels. The system can easily be controlled
via a touch-screen user interface.
Passenger counting and other integrated
sub-systems
Teleste’s open and scalable platform allows the integration
of any other subsystems efficiently and in a cost-optimized
way. For example, passenger counting is a crucial part of
our end-to-end solution and we provide it as a separate
module or integrated together with our video surveillance
and security system.
