Custom Monitors for Mobile use

Some custom monitors are intended for mobile use. These are vehicle-based mobile monitors that can be used in:

•    Law-enforcement vehicles for video recording;
•    Waste management to monitor for inappropriate disposal of materials;
•    Larger construction vehicles to provide the operator with multiple vantage points to assist with maneuvering; and
•    School buses and mass transit systems to improve public safety and customer service.

Because the usage environment varies, mobile monitors are available in many sizes and configurations.  Sizes range from 3.5” to 10.4”. Mobile monitors can also be customized to accommodate nearly any lighting conditions with anti-glare coating, optical bonding, or sunlight-readable models.

Since they are hard-mounted in vehicles, if these monitors are part of an interactive system, they may also have touch screen interfaces.

Mobile monitors have flexible mounting schemes, and can be ceiling mounted (flip-down models), or mounted from the dashboard or floor.

Mobile monitors can display multiple cameras with simultaneous split-screen displays (single, dual, triple, and quad). Monitors that are used on school buses, mass transmit systems and police cars often have a feature that automatically switches to the rear camera when the vehicle is put into reverse. Monitors used for law enforcement vehicles can also have built-in DVR systems.

Mobile monitors come standard with ABS enclosures which can withstand shock and vibration. Additional customization might include the use of metal enclosures to meet more stringent shock and impact specs for heavy-duty use. In-vehicle monitors are also available for OEM private-label on the monitor’s bezel, label and/or packaging.

Many manufacturers require custom monitors for use in their vehicles.  They can provide the perfect solution in terms of size, viewability, features and customer usability.
