The next two years, the on-board video surveillance system will hit the road

In order to strengthen the safety supervision of road passenger transport, especially long-distance sleeper buses, according to the relevant requirements of the "Safe Production Act," on July 24th, the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Public Security, State Administration of Work Safety, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "About strengthening the dynamics of road transport vehicles." The "Regulatory Work Notice" requires that sleeper buses must have in-vehicle video surveillance devices installed. The direct cause of this policy is the July 22 Beijing-Zhuhai high-speed traffic accident. The purpose is mainly to further prevent accidents, and to be able to put the pre-control in front of it, but also to further strengthen the sense of responsibility of the company as a security management subject. Actually, before the Ministry of Communications promulgated this policy, it was proposed that passenger vehicles must be loaded with video surveillance systems. However, in the process of implementation, many companies did not pay attention to this in order to save money. It was not until the Beijing-Zhuhai high-speed accident that the Ministry of Transportation was determined to rectify the safety problems in transportation.

The promulgation of this policy is definitely a good news for security companies. Transportation vehicles have always been a potentially big market for surveillance systems. An industry source believes that due to cost and other reasons, the installation rate in vehicles is not high. However, the mandatory installation regulations of the Ministry of Communications will further detonate this huge market.

A complete set of vehicle video surveillance system is composed of both a GPS positioning system and a vehicle-mounted video surveillance system. The GPS positioning system enables the monitoring center to monitor the speed and direction of the vehicle at any time, recording the vehicle's exit time, parking time, running route, and driving mileage. When an abnormal situation occurs during the running of the vehicle, the monitoring center can timely obtain information and warn the vehicle. The GPS positioning system can monitor the running status of the vehicle to a certain extent, but it cannot respond to the internal conditions of the vehicle. This requires an onboard video surveillance system. This system transmits the video images collected by the built-in GPS positioning and front-end cameras to the nearest GPRS and 3G wireless networks. It is convenient to access the central management server through the Internet to obtain first-hand live real-time vehicle position and video image information from the PC client and to perform voice intercom with any scheduled vehicle. The monitoring center can observe the interior of the vehicle at any time. To a greater extent to protect the safety of vehicles inside and outside.

The "Circular on Strengthening the Dynamic Supervision of Road Transport Vehicles" issued by the Ministry of Communications on July 24th stipulated: All new passenger vehicles must have an onboard GPS system installed before August 1st, and the original vehicles before December 31 must also be Complete the GPS system installation. At present, specific time has been set for the specific installation time of the GPS positioning system for passenger cars, and no specific implementation plan has been issued for the vehicle video monitoring system. It is no wonder that some suppliers said in an interview with the media that the current policy is still in a vacuum. As the Ministry of Communications has not introduced specific standards for on-board video surveillance, many passenger companies are still waiting to see it. For suppliers, what they have to do is to stay focused on the policy at any time so that they can seize opportunities in a timely manner.

Although the Ministry of Communications has not yet given a final standard for the on-board video surveillance system, it is undeniable that this policy has a clear role in promoting the market for on-board video surveillance systems such as road transport and passenger vehicles. Since the introduction of the mandatory policy of the Ministry of Communications, many provinces and cities, such as Beijing, Hebei, Jiangsu, and Guangdong, have basically completed the preliminary transformation of passenger vehicles within the prescribed time. From the perspective of the installation of passenger vehicle monitoring systems in these provinces and cities, most of the current vehicles have been equipped with GPS positioning systems. Some provinces and cities have already completed the installation of on-board video surveillance systems for some vehicles without even waiting for the notification standards of the Ministry of Communications.

The installation of a GPS system for passenger vehicles has already provided a good start for the improvement of on-board video surveillance systems. After all, car video surveillance system is a long-term and relatively systematic project, not a job that can be completed in a short time. In addition to the vehicle video surveillance system has been gradually applied to passenger vehicles, while its application has gradually been applied to the bus, law enforcement vehicles and even taxis in this area of ​​the field gradually expanded. Its market size can theoretically reach hundreds of billions according to industry insiders' predictions.

The development trend of on-board video surveillance has been highlighted, but it does not reach the peak stage from the current application situation. There are two reasons for this. On the one hand, the country has not issued specific application technical standards for on-board video surveillance systems. If at this time the passenger transport company will install it, and wait until the standard comes out, if its standard does not meet the national standard and it will be replaced again, this will be a considerable loss for the company. On the other hand, most of the installations of on-board video surveillance systems are supported and promoted by the local government. Some companies have a weak awareness of the installation of vehicle safety monitoring systems. In fact, when the national government departments have stated that they must vigorously rectify the traffic safety problem, the on-board video surveillance system is definitely necessary as the most important safeguard measure in the traffic operation. The development of the vehicle video surveillance system in this market will be the largest The driving force. According to the notification issued by the Ministry of Communications, video surveillance systems for vehicles will become the norm in the next two years. By that time, the video surveillance system will usher in its peak of development.
