IMS Research: mobile video surveillance will reach almost US$500 million by 2011. A new market study from IMS Research forecasts that the world market for mobile video surveillance will reach almost US$500 million by 2011.

The triple threat of terrorist attack, vandalism and litigation is causing governments and transport operators to protect their vehicles and passengers with security cameras. Within the bus and coach video surveillance market there is a general trend to install more cameras and features per bus.

Where previously a system may have had two or three cameras monitoring the doorway and aisle of a bus, going forward more cameras will be used to give complete coverage of the inside and outside of a bus.

Furthermore, GPS data and sensor inputs such as those from turn signals are being recorded alongside the video footage to give a clearer picture of the events leading up to an incident.
