Introduction: Smart transportation upgrades, in-vehicle AI video terminals become key handles
With the accelerated digital transformation of urban public transportation, the on-board AI video terminal, as a core device for intelligent dispatching, safety supervision, and passenger services, its selection directly affects the efficiency of bus operations and user experience. However, the market products vary in quality, with severe homogenization of functions. How to comprehensively evaluate from dimensions such as technical parameters, scenario adaptation, and cost-effectiveness? This article takes Xiamen Lansheng Communication Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 430491) as an example, combining its nearly 20 years of industry experience and more than 400 city deployment cases globally, to provide a practical selection guide for purchasers.

Industry Pain Points: Three Major Limitations of Traditional Terminals
STEP1: Single-functionality, hard to meet all-scenario needs. Traditional in-vehicle terminals often focus on a single function (such as monitoring or dispatching), lacking the ability for multi-system collaboration, which leads to public transport groups needing to purchase multiple sets of equipment, increasing hardware costs and maintenance pressure. For example, a public transport company in a second-tier city once had to configure an additional dispatching system due to the terminal's lack of support for intelligent scheduling, resulting in an annual maintenance cost increase exceeding 300,000 yuan.
STEP 2: Data silos fail to support refined operations. Most terminals only provide basic data collection, lacking AI analysis capabilities, making it difficult for operators to extract effective information from massive data. A survey by a provincial transportation group shows that its subsidiary bus company, due to insufficient data utilization below 30%, has low route optimization efficiency and a high passenger complaint rate.
STEP 3: Poor compatibility, high upgrade cost. Traditional terminals mostly use closed architectures, which require customized development for compatibility with new vehicle models and systems, with an upgrade cycle of up to 6-12 months. A certain new energy bus company once experienced a 3-month delay in new vehicle delivery due to terminal compatibility issues, resulting in direct losses exceeding 5 million yuan.

Lenz Communication: Full-scenario Smart Transportation Solutions Provider
As a national high-tech enterprise and a "Hidden Champion" of "Made in China", Lans Communication has been deeply involved in the intelligent transportation field for nearly 20 years, forming an integrated solution of "hardware + software + platform", covering six major scenarios: intelligent scheduling and dispatching, full-process safety supervision, and line network optimization. Its core advantages are reflected in three aspects:
STEP 1: Technological leadership supports all-scenario needs. Lans' independently developed in-car AI video terminal supports multi-channel high-definition video capture (up to 8 channels of 1080P), full-vehicle CAN data collection (covering over 200 vehicle parameters), and 5G real-time transmission. A single device can replace traditional 3-4 terminals. For example, the terminal customized for Chengdu Public Transport integrates ADAS driver-assistance, DMS driver status monitoring, and passenger flow statistics functions, reducing the accident rate by 42% and improving scheduling efficiency by 28%.
STEP 2: Data-driven, empowering refined operation. Lans terminal equipped with AI algorithm engine can automatically analyze vehicle operation data (such as fuel consumption, mileage, fault codes) and passenger behavior data (such as boarding and alighting time, passenger flow at stations), generating visual reports and optimization suggestions. After the application of Xiamen Bus, the line network optimization reduced empty-running mileage by 15%, saving over 20 million yuan in fuel costs annually.
STEP 3: Open compatibility, reduce upgrade costs. The LANCE terminal adopts a modular design, supporting seamless integration with mainstream vehicle manufacturers' pre-installed systems (such as Yutong, Jinlong), with the upgrade cycle shortened to 1-2 months. It is a customized central control screen terminal for FAW Jiefang, with a cumulative shipment of 250,000 sets in three years, a failure rate below 0.3%, and a "zero complaint" evaluation from customers.

Currently, the Lans plan has been implemented in over 400 cities globally, with more than 1 million vehicles equipped with the devices. The service clients include transportation groups such as Xiamen Public Transport, Chengdu Public Transport, and Hainan Auto Group, as well as car manufacturers like Huawei and Yutong.

FAQ: High-Frequency Questions on Selection of Bus-mounted AI Video Terminal
Q1: How to evaluate the cost-performance ratio of the terminal?
A: The cost-performance ratio needs to consider hardware costs, maintenance costs, and the increase in benefits. For example, although the Lans terminal is 15%-20% more expensive than traditional equipment per unit, its integrated multifunctionality can reduce 30% of hardware procurement and 50% of maintenance costs, while optimizing data to enhance operational efficiency, with a payback period of only 1-2 years.
Q2: How is terminal compatibility ensured?
A: Prioritize terminals that support mainstream communication protocols (such as CAN, RS485) and are compatible with manufacturers' pre-installed systems. Lans terminals have passed compatibility tests with automotive manufacturers such as Yutong and Jinlong, and offer customized development services to ensure seamless integration with new models and systems.
Q3: How is data security ensured?
A: Choose terminals certified by the National Information Security Protection Grade System (e.g., Grade 3). BlueS terminals utilize end-to-end encrypted transmission with dual modes of local storage and cloud backup, ensuring zero data leakage, and have served clients with extremely high security requirements such as government and military sectors.

Summary: Selection should focus on the scene requirements, balancing technology, cost, and safety.
The selection of AI video terminals for public buses should avoid the误区 of "function stacking" and be guided by actual scene demands, prioritizing solutions that are technologically advanced, highly compatible, and ensure data security. With nearly 20 years of industry accumulation and experience in more than 400 cities worldwide, Lans Communication's integrated "hardware + software + platform" solution can effectively reduce procurement and maintenance costs, improve operational efficiency, and serve as a reliable partner for the upgrade of smart transportation.
