Transcend’s Sleek DrivePro 230 Dashcam Offers Safety and Style

Transcend Information Inc. is proud to announce the introduction of the DrivePro 230 dashcam. Equipped with a Sony Exmor™ sensor, the dashcam captures high-resolution images with extremely fine tonal gradation even in low light. Among the device’s other features are a GPS receiver, a G-sensor, a high-capacity Li-polymer battery, a convenient snapshot button, and Wi-Fi connectivity.

A Sony Exmor™ sensor for high resolution imagery

Transcend’s DrivePro 230 features a Sony Exmor™ sensor that captures high-resolution images with superb, rich color even in low light. Built-in Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology balances the brightest and dimmest areas of captured images, ensuring that every critical shot is as clear as possible. Night or day, the camera can clearly record details such as license plate numbers at 30 fps at 1080p Full HD.

Parking monitoring mode for extra protection

In addition to on-the-road safety, Transcend’s DrivePro 230 stands sentry when the vehicle is parked at a public parking lot or on a roadside. When parked, the driver can enable the motion detection function or the time-lapse video recording function. The former activates recording when motion is detected; the latter enables users to get right to the heart of the matter without needing to view hours of incident-free footage.

Pinpoint the vehicle’s location

The DrivePro 230's GPS receiver can log GPS coordinates, date, and time into recorded video footage. GPS coordinates precisely locate where an incident happened so that emergency road services, police, or an insurance representative can respond more quickly. The DrivePro Toolbox enables the full review of a trip, including GPS position, speed, and time of day.

Additional key features

Transcend’s DrivePro 230 also comes equipped with a Lane Departure Warning System, which checks for, and alerts a driver to, sudden changes in speed and lane.

The system will in either case alert a driver with a warning sound and an onscreen alert. When the DrivePro detects poor lighting conditions, the Headlight Reminder will be activated. To help prevent tired drivers from getting into an accident, the Driver Fatigue Alert regularly reminds a driver of the need to rest after driving for a preset, driver-determined period of time.

Exclusive DrivePro Toolbox and DrivePro App

The user-friendly DrivePro Toolbox features a sorting function to quickly locate video clips by filename, recording date, or group. The DrivePro Toolbox also provides a screenshot function allowing for the capture of a single frame that can be tailored so that users can rapidly find the shot they are seeking.

Yanson Group of Bus Companies Integrates Transcend DrivePro 100 Dashcams to Improve the Safety of Bus Passengers and Drivers

Yanson Group of Bus Companies is the largest land transport company in the Philippines. It compromises Ceres Liner, established in 1968 and later as Ceres Transport Inc. in 2009. It also includes Rural Transit of Mindanao Inc (RTMI), established in 1985, and Bachelor Express Inc., also established in 1985.

This is a family owned and managed business, which has grown from a lone 12-seater jeepney—the most common form of transportation of Philippines—plied through a single route, and now has become a conglomerate of transportation companies with a combined number of operating units of a little over 2000 transport vehicles as of January 2008. 

They have operations in nearly 80% of the bus routes in the Visayas and Mindanao regions and some parts of Luzon in the Philippines.

As of today, the corporation presides over a transportation business with 7,500 direct and active employees, and 2,000 buses serving the island of Negros, Panay, Cebu, Samar-Leyte, Mindanao, and Batangas City.

The challenges the Yanson Group of Bus Companies is monitoring all their vehicles, which travels on a daily basis, passing through steep roads and highways filled with fast-moving vehicles. Without being able to monitor the buses and their driver, it would difficult and challenging for the Yanson Group to get feedback on how to maintain the quality of their services.

In September 2016, the Yanson Group of Bus Companies has integrated dashboard cameras into their buses, selecting Transcend as their partner.

Transcend has provided the Yanson Group DrivePro 100 devices. These devices are capable of recording high-quality videos even without connecting the devices into the vehicles.

The integration of Transcend DrivePro 100 into the buses has solved a number of incidents, such as arguments between passengers and conductors, and also monitors passengers’ should there be a robbery incident. This also allows the managers to remotely supervise passengers to ensure a safe journey.

The DrivePro 100 has also given the managers of the Yanson Group of Bus Companies to personally monitor the activities of their drivers and conductors, if they are treating the passengers well, or determine if the driver was being reckless on the road, which can lead to accidents and cause heavy traffic congestions.

The Transcend DrivePro 100 features high-quality lens that automatically adjusts to different lightning conditions. This means whether day or night the DrivePro 100 will ensure that it records with full clarity.

Recorded videos can be selected between 720p or 1080p resolutions at 30 frames per second with a 130-degree wide-angled lens. It also has infrared filter lens that prevents fogging over long periods of recording.

Even if the Transcend DrivePro 100 is switched off, it features a G-Sensor, which detects impacts and collisions, automatically switching on the dashboard camera. This also protects the bus while parked, on instances when people try to break-in to the bus.

The built-in Li-Polymer battery makes certain that even if the bus has its engines off, the DrivePro 100 will continue to record videos. It will also record an additional 30 seconds after the battery has died.

The DrivePro 100 comes with the DrivePro PC Tool for Windows. This is software that features a user-friendly interface to sort out files by date and group, allowing all video formats to be played without installing additional codecs. A screenshot function is included. This tool becomes especially handy while reporting incidents to insurance companies or claims settlements for police.

The Transcend DrivePro 100 has helped improve business for the Yanson Group of Bus Companies by helping its administrators monitor its employees and passengers to ensure quality customer service.
