Planet Halo is introducing its production model PH4 vehicle recorder at the BusCon Expo being held Sept. 10-11 at the Navy Pier in Chicago.
The PH4 is a unique recording device that incorporates 2 high-resolution camera lenses, a GPS module, audio recorder, G-force inertial sensor, audio speaker, and mini-DVR with SD card all housed in a sleek design measuring only 4”L x 2 ¼”H x 1”D. The device mounting bracket incorporates input jacks for the included external cameras, a remote video monitor, USB connectivity and the power connection.
Designed specifically for buses and multi-passenger vehicles for hire, the PH4 captures video over the entire interior length of the passenger compartment and views from the driver’s perspective towards the front of the vehicle. The external cameras are designed to mount on the side of the vehicle and capture video alongside and towards the rear of the vehicle. These teardrop shaped external cameras are small, only 2” long, and weatherproof. A rear facing camera, the PH square, can be affixed for a variety of purposes including use as a back-up camera or stop arm monitor.
The sophisticated software included in the PH4 records and compiles video data from all four cameras, continuous GPS positioning, speed, G-force data, and programmed or triggered events and displays them all on a user friendly viewer. Management can now track their vehicle routes, speeds, stops and starts, driver and passenger behavior while viewing the actual video events as they occurred in high-definition color replay.
The PH4 is the only fully contained multi-channel recorder on the market. No need for separate DVR’s with cabled in cameras, external power supplies, separate GPS tracking devices or custom reporting software to compile your data. There are no recurring monitoring fees, and guaranteed to be the most cost effective vehicle recorder in the market. Customers own and control 100 percent of their video and data. For accidental collision investigations, passenger or driver complaints, fleet monitoring, route economy and insurance compliance this device does it all.
