Designed specifically for the mobile environment, the Dahua mobile transportation solution is a line of modular transportation solutions—rugged exterior network cameras, multi-channel recording devices, universal power supplies, and emergency back-up—that help transportation entities to minimize risk, decrease litigation, acquire credible evidence, reduce operating costs, and enforce organisational standards.

“Rather than being limited by a proprietary system, Dahua has introduced an open-source solution with the flexibility and functionality that will limit the impact of costs. This allows the end user to make a change in software or individual hardware, regardless of manufacturer,” said Steven Cruz, senior business development manager, North America, Strategic Transportation Solutions. “We are proud to unveil a portfolio of products that will ensure assets, personnel, and ridership are safeguarded and efficiently managed in mobile environments.”

Dahua now is offering world-class, enterprise level Central Management Software (CMS) as part of the mobile transportation solution. Dahua’s Digital Surveillance Software (DSS) platform delivers functionality such as two-way audio communications, Event Management Automation Protocol (EMAP), an alarm centre, and matrix output. It also enhances the user experience with capabilities such as real-time monitoring and playback, GPS tracking, driver behavior management, and impact/incident notification. The mobile DSS client is available for IOS and Android.

The mobile transportation products will be assembled at a new facility in Stafford, Texas, slated to open in June. Products will be assembled by a staff primarily comprised of former US Military veterans, an initiative that is supported by local and state governments. “Dahua’s expansion to Stafford represents two milestones: assembly of our products in a US location and a workforce partially comprised of US Military veterans,” said Cruz. “We are proud to provide former US military veterans more opportunities and support the economy of Texas as Dahua expands its North American footprint.”
