IRVINE, California, May 9, 2017 – Dahua Technology USA, a leading manufacturer of video surveillance solutions proven the world over, announced an end-to-end solution portfolio that meets the unique requirements of the transportation industry.

Designed specifically for the mobile environment, the Dahua mobile transportation solution is a line of modular transportation solutions—rugged exterior network cameras, multi-channel recording devices, universal power supplies, and emergency back-up—that help transportation entities to minimize risk, decrease litigation, acquire credible evidence, reduce operating costs, and enforce organizational standards.

“Rather than being limited by a proprietary system, Dahua has introduced an open-source solution with the flexibility and functionality that will limit the impact of costs. This allows the end user to make a change in software or individual hardware, regardless of manufacturer,” said Steven Cruz, senior business development manager, North America, Strategic Transportation Solutions. “We are proud to unveil a portfolio of products that will ensure assets, personnel, and ridership are safeguarded and efficiently managed in mobile environments.”

Dahua now is offering world-class, enterprise level Central Management Software (CMS) as part of the mobile transportation solution. Dahua’s Digital Surveillance Software (DSS) platform delivers functionality such as two-way audio communications, Event Management Automation Protocol (EMAP), an alarm center, and matrix output. It also enhances the user experience with capabilities such as real-time monitoring and playback, GPS tracking, driver behavior management, and impact/incident notification. The mobile DSS client is available for iOS and Android.

In addition to DSS software, Dahua created HDD Manager and AutoBackup tools that allow the user to back up data with or without Wi-Fi access. In a non-wireless environment, users can run HDD Manager on the computer to access utilities including record and playback, search, backup, frame preview, and watermark verification. In a wireless environment, users can run AutoBackup to extract video and data from vehicles.

Dahua’s integrated transportation platform delivers reliable video recording, intelligence technologies, and enterprise-level software that have been proven across a wide range of verticals, including student transit, mass transit, logistics, and law enforcement. All mobile transportation products carry a standard 5-year warranty.

Assembled in the USA with Opportunities for US Military Veterans

The mobile transportation products will be assembled at a new facility in Stafford, Texas, slated to open in June. Products will be assembled by a staff primarily comprised of former US Military veterans, an initiative that is supported by local and state governments.

Dahua will train and employ a portion of its workforce with individuals who are qualified by the Veteran’s Association and the Texas Workforce Commission, which addresses unemployment in the state. Among the initial line supervisor and operations positions, Dahua will hire management trainees who are eligible for the GI Bill.

“Dahua’s expansion to Stafford represents two milestones: assembly of our products in a US location and a workforce partially comprised of US Military veterans,” said Cruz. “We are proud to provide former US military veterans more opportunities and support the economy of Texas as Dahua expands its North American footprint.”

Dahua Technology USA maintains its corporate offices in Irvine, California and recently opened a second facility in Franklin, Massachusetts.
