Abbotsford, BC - TheNewswire - April 21, 2021 - Gatekeeper Systems Inc. (‘Gatekeeper’ or the ‘Company’) (TSXV:GSI) (OTC:GKPRF) (FSE:1GK) a video and data solutions provider for public transportation and smart cities, has launched a new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) based video management solution designed to store and manage school bus video data, and announces its first customer deployment for a school bus fleet in Wisconsin.
The SaaS-based solution is enterprise software that allows video data, recorded on-bus by wirelessly enabled mobile data collectors, to be stored and analyzed on the Company’s cloud-based servers. Using a secure log-in portal, users access intelligent video search software to view, analyze and extract video segments to assist in situations such as locating a missing child, or analyzing student and driver behavior. The software package is priced on a per-vehicle basis and invoiced quarterly in a SaaS-based recurring revenue model. Development and testing are complete, and the first customer deployment will be on 23 school buses for a school district in Wisconsin.
This SaaS-based solution becomes a new additional data layer on the Company’s Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) business model which is centered around wirelessly enabled mobile data collectors that record and analyze video, audio, GPS location and data on the school bus, and becomes the on-board intelligence platform for future applications such as passenger counting, contact tracing and more.
The school district in Wisconsin had previously purchased the PaaS solution for their buses in February 2021 and is now adding the SaaS-based video management software to achieve an advanced comprehensive intelligent video program for their fleet.
Doug Dyment, President and CEO commented, “This hosted video management software solution is in line with our strategic goal of developing SaaS-based solutions that interconnect to the data being collected by the thousands of mobile data collectors we’ve installed on public passenger transportation vehicles. Passenger safety and operational flexibility have become increasingly important to our school and transit customers who are operating with today’s pandemic safety protocols as being the new norm. They rely on video and data technologies to help them in their operations.”
School districts are rapidly embracing video and data solutions on school buses to help provide a safer transportation environment for school children. Gatekeeper has installed more than 34,000 intelligent mobile data collectors and 100,000 video devices on school buses for over 3,500 school district customers.
