Companies dealing with any type of transportation of goods and passengers are under constant pressure to increase agility, speed, and cost-effectiveness. Adopting more digital services and automation plays an important role in addressing those challenges. Besides, many players in the transportation sector are already embracing intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and Artificial Intelligence to stay ahead of the competition.
Camera vision applications and imaging systems are integral parts of future-proof transportation systems. Our cameras with high resolution, high sensitivity sensors, and powerful Edge-AI processors are proven solutions for advanced transportation applications. We help to keep the planet moving including people, cars, trains, boats, cranes, intermodal, mass transit, and more.
Whether it is enhancing autonomous vehicles' perception capabilities or improving safety in public transportation, having the right camera solution is crucial. While commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) imaging cameras may seem like a convenient option at first glance, they often fall short when it comes to meeting the unique requirements of mobility and transportation applications. In certain instances, a “one-size-fits-all” approach simply does not suffice for transportation cameras.

The transportation market runs nonstop. So do we.
Any individual who reads this article up to this point would be familiar with the image sensor types and the merits of CMOS sensors. Less power consumption, cost-efficiency, no blooming, and smearing artifacts are among the many advantages of CMOS technology. With the introduction of global shutter, cameras with CMOS sensors have become more and more widespread for many traffic and transportation applications, solving the motion sensitivity with high-quality images. That’s why we have chosen this zoom block camera with a global shutter to be highlighted.
Equipped with a 1/2.3” Sony Global Shutter IMX392LQR-C CMOS sensor, the camera ensures that moving objects are captured without any distortion commonly associated with rolling shutters. Meaning every frame will be crystal clear and true to life.
In terms of output and connectivity, this camera has got you all covered. It provides LVDS video output up to 1080p (60/50fps, 30/25fps). Additionally, it offers an EX-SDI output option which allows for the use of longer transmission cables up to 700m. Analog CVBS output is also available. You can also control the camera using either Serial VISCA or Pelco-D/Pelco-P control protocols.
But that's not all - the 25Z2.4-36X camera comes packed with a range of special features that take your imaging to the next level. With Digital Noise Reduction, Image Stabilization, High/Back Light Compensation (HLC/BLC), Day & Night (Infrared Cut filter Removal, ICR), Privacy Mask Function, Intelligent Motion Detection, and Defog functions; you have everything you need to capture stunning footage in any environment.
The 36x Autofocus Zoom Block Camera is also compatible with SightLine Application’s hardware platforms (1500-OEM, 3000-OEM, and 4000-OEM) for advanced onboard video and image processing features.
IP board cameras offer many benefits for real-time video monitoring within transportation applications. In a nutshell, they offer:
With unit sizes of 42mm x 42mm (1.65" x 1.65") Videology 4K and 1080p IP board cameras are small and compact to fit in almost any imaging system. Both cameras have low light sensitivity delivering clear images in very limited lighting conditions. Additionally, the power supply can be via 12VDC as well as Power over Ethernet (PoE) (44.0 – 57.0VDC), which provides flexible options for implementation.
Videology IP cameras enable the distribution of video material sent to the network at streams in different codecs. The IP cameras allow you to set two or more streams simultaneously. This functionality enables users to record different streams at the same time. A good example would be using the first stream for full-screen viewing, the second stream for split-screen viewing, and the third stream for mobile viewing.
The transportation and mobility industry is on the corner of a major transformation. With advancements in autonomous vehicles, drones, and smart infrastructure, transporting goods and passengers will become faster, safer, and more efficient than ever before.
As we look toward the future, custom-embedded cameras will keep on playing a vital role in ensuring safety, efficiency, and reliability. Designing imaging applications and systems with robustness, enhanced image quality, real-time data processing, and flexibility for integration can overcome the known complexities and expected challenges. By embracing the possibilities offered by Videology cameras, we can create a future where the transportation of goods and passengers is safer, faster, greener, and more sustainable.
