Homeland Security Puts Live Video Feeds In Boston Buses

“Sophisticated new 360-degree lenses embedded in the ceilings and walls of the buses will now capture everything.  There are also cameras on the exterior of the buses.  The system cost $6.9 million, all paid for by Homeland Security.  Eighty transit police cruisers will also soon have touch screens, so officers can look live right into a bus that they may be following. ‘It is pretty amazing. You pull up the camera system, then you already have a description of the suspect. He could be looking at the cameras as you are following the bus,’ MBTA Transit Police Officer Luke Sayers said.  Transit Police from their downtown dispatch headquarters will also be able to monitor hundreds of buses in real-time.”
