Bus Driving Management System
Patent number: M547148

Main Purpose: The objective of the Bus Driving Management System is to enhance security and safety of bus operations by monitoring driver’s identity and his/her physical fitness to drive by the iris & facial images, respectively. The system may be applied to the management of intercity buses, city buses, and tour buses


The system includes two cameras, one for identifying iris, and the other for facial images. It also includes an iris identification module, a cloud management module, and a security control module to work with the iris camera. The iris identification module is capable of identifying driver’s iris images and may generate identification signals. The cloud management module may then clarify the driver's identity by the signals from the iris identifying module. The security control module may control the start of engine after the driver’s identity has been cleared. The other camera can capture the driver's facial image for the cloud management module to monitor the driving state. A driving state monitoring module may send an emergency signal to the security control module to trigger an alarm if a danger signal on driver’s physical fitness to drive is detected.
