Very profitable by the sounds of it!!!
Very profitable by the sounds of it!!!
* How many years of service are included (both for the data plan and just repairs when someone smashes a bus camera). Employing people to fix/replace cameras could easily cost hundreds of thousands per year
* Where does the video go? Redundant storage in geographically disparate areas?
* How long is video retained?
* R&D costs?
* Does the price include manual human review?
* There was also some drama where the 2 vendors sued each other, idk if that has any impact on the prices
* The tickets during the pilot made millions of dollars per year, do the cameras pay for themselves?
* How much efficiency are they gaining if the program results in fewer blocked busses?
And how long do those cameras last? The feds only fund bus replacements at twelve years or 500,000 miles.
