BIMS provides a bus dispatcher with the ability to
locate a distress call, remotely view the incident, direct
appropriate assistance to the scene, and accelerate
response time.
TECHNOLOGIES
This computer system and enclosure are
used in the Bus Incident Monitoring System
(BIMS) developed by SwRI to help provide
better response during incidents.
SwRI engineers develop and integrate
technologies to fill the gap between
new requirements and existing communication systems. Some of the
technologies used to develop these
solutions have included:
❏ Wireless Ethernet networks
❏ Mobile networking technologies (mobile IP)
❏ Mobile ad hoc networks
❏ Mobile satellite communications
❏ Cellular communications
❏ Wired ITS networks

SwRI-developed software on a hand-held
device is attached to a vehicle’s CAN bus to
extract and report vehicle information to traffic
management centers.
Wireless video, data and audio communications are transmitted to and from mobile
ambulance.
Hospital receives real-time patient video and
vital data.
SwRI engineers perform testing of a wireless system that supports traffic
monitoring applications.
