School Bus Telematics System Solution
School Bus Telematics System
In recent years, school bus safety incidents have occurred frequently, severely impacting society and families. Issues such as unqualified drivers, school bus collisions, and students being left behind after the bus engine is turned off need urgent solutions. Under strict government management, it is the shared responsibility of the government, schools, and enterprises to enhance supervision, prevent accidents, and improve emergency response through technological means.
Main Challenges in School Bus Management
1. Overloading
Insufficient financial investment leads to a mismatch between the number of school buses and students, causing frequent overloading and increasing the risk of traffic accidents.
2. Unlicensed Drivers
Inadequate assessment of school bus drivers results in unqualified, temporary drivers being put on duty, which increases the risk of accidents.
3. Irregular Driving
Drivers engage in unsafe behaviors such as speeding, rapid acceleration, sharp turns, and using phones while driving, posing a threat to students' safety.
4. Students Left Behind After Engine Shutdown
Due to negligence, drivers and teachers fail to check promptly, leading to students being left on the bus, which can result in suffocation risks.
5. Parental Concerns
Parents are unaware of the exact arrival times of the school bus, leading to delays in pickup and drop-off. Therefore, SMS notifications are needed to inform parents when children get on or off the bus.
6. Full-process Vehicle Monitoring and Emergency Dispatch
Real-time vehicle data needs to be recorded during school bus operations, with the ability to remotely dispatch in case of emergencies.
Intelligent School Bus Telematics Solution
To address the above issues, a 4G video-based intelligent on-board terminal can be installed on school buses, offering high-precision positioning, real-time monitoring, driver identity verification, and more, in conjunction with a cloud platform for supervision. This solution has been successfully applied in multiple domestic and international projects.
System Functions:
1. Full-Process Monitoring
Real-time video monitoring, historical video playback, and dynamic switching of turn signal videos to assist driving.
2. Speed Monitoring
A high-precision positioning module monitors vehicle speed in real-time, alerting the driver and sending an alarm to the platform when speeding occurs.
3. Safe Driving Assistance
Monitors the driver's state (e.g., yawning, eyes closing, using a phone) and provides alerts for potential hazards such as collisions and lane departure via the front-view system.
4. Driving Behavior Detection
Real-time monitoring of harsh acceleration, abrupt braking, and sharp turns, with alerts for these behaviors.
5. Passenger Count
An intelligent passenger counting system accurately calculates the number of passengers boarding and alighting. If the bus is overloaded, an alert is sent to the platform.
6. Driver Facial Recognition
Facial recognition ensures that the driver is legally qualified to operate the bus, preventing unlicensed or substitute drivers.
7. SMS/Email Notifications
Sends student information to the cloud server when students board or alight, with real-time notifications sent to parents.
8. Anti-Leave-Behind Mechanism
After the engine is turned off, the driver must trigger a safety inspection button. If not, the system will send a reminder to prevent students from being left behind.
9. Data Statistics
Automatically generates reports on attendance, alarms, and other data to aid in management and analysis.
10. Information Management
Provides management functions for vehicle information, maintenance records, and more, ensuring the normal operation of the buses.
The YUWEI Intelligent School Bus Telematics Solution effectively enhances school bus safety, reduces accidents, ensures student safety, and improves the parent experience.
