Smart Solutions for
School Bus Security
Keep students and drivers safe in transit with real-time access to video feeds for faster investigations
NVR-Free Architecture for Easy Deployment
Simple to deploy
Outfit your entire bus fleet with cloud security cameras featuring on-device storage and optional audio recording — no NVRs or bulky servers needed. Verkada Cellular Gateways enable real-time video access, while third-party timer relays power cameras with ignition and shut them down automatically to conserve bus battery life.
Manage the system with ease
Transportation directors and school administrators can easily find, save, and share incident footage within minutes after being onboarded — no IT expertise required. A centralized, cloud-based interface empowers teams with instant visibility across the entire fleet, speeding up incident investigations.
Investigate in Real Time, From Anywhere
Quickly locate missing students
When a concerned parent calls in, act fast. Upload a student’s photo, or enter a description to track their movement from boarding to drop-off with timestamped video clips. Share real-time location intel on when the student was last seen to help local authorities begin search efforts immediately.
Disprove false claims with evidence
Easily locate incident footage by filtering video by bus, date, and time, whether it’s a reported altercation or a driver’s alleged comment. Share archived footage with school administrators, enabling selective face blur on video clips to protect the privacy of surrounding students not involved.
Access video feeds remotely
No more waiting for the bus or for someone to physically retrieve footage. Investigate incidents as they happen and share live or archived footage with school safety personnel or law enforcement via SMS or a direct link to support rapid response.
Speed up incident documentation
Save time on manual paperwork. Easily document and archive safety incidents en route — from fights to traffic incidents — with a digital system that automatically sorts video clips in chronological order and generates shareable PDF reports in one click.
Support district privacy policies
Customize user roles and set granular permissions to uphold internal privacy standards. Easily control which users can access footage based on their assigned roles in Verkada Command, and further enhance system-wide security with built-in SAML, SSO, and 2FA integrations.
