The arrival of year-end celebrations brings a significant movement across all regions of Brazil and consequently an increase in passengers on public transport.

In São Paulo, for example, before the pandemic caused by the coronavirus, the New Year's Eve show captivated the eyes of many tourists and attracted over two million people just in the capital.

During this time, the flow of people using trains, buses, and other means of transport is high, but the number remains elevated throughout the year. Therefore, investing in quality equipment that enhances the safety of passengers and staff is crucial.

The São Paulo monorail – as an example – already enjoys all the benefits of using Axis solutions aimed at monitoring vehicles that are in constant motion. They can also take advantage of the technologies developed by the manufacturer that assist in various challenges encountered in surveillance.

And if you want to know more about the equipment for onboard monitoring, just continue reading this post!

The Monorail and Its Challenges

The monorail is an “evolution” of the subway and instead of being built underground, it uses an elevated structure and circulates on suspended walkways. And even though for most of the day it relies on natural light to illuminate the cars, this can often be a problem due to excessive brightness.

Not only that, but the limited space, impacts, and extreme vibrations are also factors that pose significant challenges for video monitoring, and having technologies that combat these issues is essential.

Therefore, we will now present the Axis equipment available for onboard surveillance, both those used in the monorail and those that can be used in trains, buses, subways, trams, etc.

Durable and Prepared – Discover the Solutions for Mobile Surveillance

The onboard cameras from Axis are specially developed to meet all the challenges encountered along the way, from lighting conditions to the storage space for recordings.

The AXIS P39 line is ideal for surveillance in trains, trams, and subways. They meet the most stringent standards for railway applications, including EN50155.

They can also be used in buses, emergency vehicles, trucks, and even in industrial environments – where they are exposed to significant amounts of impacts and vibrations.

Additionally, it features exclusive technologies developed by the manufacturer, such as Forensic WDR for high-quality images even with dark and bright areas in the scene, and Lightfinder, which provides sharp and colorful images even in low-light conditions.

And we cannot forget to mention its electronic image stabilization, which effectively minimizes the effects of vibration and shaking.

The AXIS M3057-PLVE MkII is a compact minidome that can be used in both indoor and outdoor environments. It has important ratings for transport monitoring, such as IK10 and IP66, making it resistant to vandalism, dust, and strong water jets.

In addition to being compatible with Forensic WDR and Lightfinder technologies, it also features OptimizedIR to ensure surveillance continues even in total darkness.

And to save on storage space, the M3057-PLVE MkII comes with Axis Zipstream factory-installed.

Extra: Axis Zipstream ensures a reduction in bandwidth and storage requirements securely without losing image quality and is compatible with H.264 and H.265 compression standards.
