As public transportation operators continue to expand fleet size and improve passenger safety standards, the demand for a reliable bus camera system and intelligent fleet management infrastructure is growing rapidly. 

In a large-scale public transportation project in Sweden, STONKAM deployed nearly 500 intelligent MDVR vehicle surveillance systems for buses. The solution combined a high-performance bus camera system and a customized fleet management platform to help the customer improve safety supervision, operational transparency, and fleet maintenance efficiency.

Key Customer Pain Points

● Limited Visibility Inside the Bus Cabin
Due to the large cabin space and frequent passenger movement, drivers could not fully monitor onboard situations in real time, making it difficult to quickly detect abnormal incidents.

● Incomplete Emergency Event Records
During sudden braking or unexpected incidents, continuous video footage was sometimes unavailable, making post-event investigation and liability clarification more challenging.

● Need for Seamless Integration with Existing Server Architecture
The customer operated a self-hosted server system and required the onboard surveillance system and fleet management platform to integrate smoothly for unified management and maintenance.

● Growing Maintenance Pressure with Fleet Expansion
As device numbers increased, manual inspections became inefficient, creating a need for a centralized platform to monitor device status more effectively.

Solution

To meet the customer’s requirements for onboard monitoring, data recording, and platform integration, STONKAM provided a comprehensive solution centered around a bus camera system and a customized fleet management platform.

1. HD Bus Camera System

STONKAM intelligent MDVRs were connected to 5–6 HD onboard cameras per bus, enabling full cabin video coverage while establishing a stable data recording and remote management system.

● Multi-trigger recording modes (motion detection, G-sensor, overspeed, alarm input, etc.) with 15-second pre-recording to ensure complete retention of critical event footage
● Integration of 4G, Wi-Fi, GPS, and multi-terminal clients (Web/APP/PC) for remote live monitoring and video playback
● Support for DVIR compliance management to meet daily fleet safety inspection requirements
● Standard API support for seamless integration with the customer’s existing server and management systems
● Automatic remote upload of alarm videos, alarm information, logs, GPS tracks, live video, and snapshots for intelligent data analysis and centralized platform management

STONKAM intelligent bus camera system helped establish a reliable and scalable fleet video telematics infrastructure for the customer’s public transportation operations.

2. Customized Fleet Management Platform

● The STONKAM fleet management platform was deployed on the customer’s local server to support localized data management requirements
● Supports Windows Client on PC and iOS APP for remote live monitoring and video playback access
● The platform interface and functions can be customized according to project requirements, including system operation status monitoring

Project Outcomes

● Improved Visibility and Safety Management
Bus camera system allowed management personnel to monitor onboard conditions in real time, reducing blind spots and improving overall safety supervision.

● Complete Incident Video Records
Event-triggered recording automatically captured critical incidents, providing clear video evidence for emergency situations and operational disputes.

● Seamless System Integration and Deployment
STONKAM devices were successfully integrated with the customer’s self-hosted servers and platform, with customized functions developed to improve compatibility with the existing architecture.

● Higher Maintenance Efficiency
Remote device status monitoring enabled centralized management of large-scale terminal devices, helping the customer detect issues quickly and optimize maintenance efficiency.
