Delivering advanced compliance and safety technology across a complex multi-model transit fleet.
Automated Camera Enforcement (ACE) System Integration
Auto Action Technologies served as a key integration partner for New York City Transit’s Automated Camera Enforcement (ACE) System Project, designed to enhance fleet safety, improve compliance, and ensure accountability throughout the city’s public transportation network.
The project covered over 1,000 buses spanning 14 unique vehicle models, requiring highly customized installation and testing to achieve uniform system functionality and reliability across all platforms.
Project Overview
Client: New York City Transit (NYCT)
Scope: Automated Camera Enforcement (ACE) system integration
Fleet Size: 1,000+ buses across 14 models
Location: New York City, NY
Services Provided: Surveying, prototyping, custom installation, training, warehousing, and maintenance support
Challenge
The ACE system is critical to New York City Transit’s commitment to traffic law enforcement and rider safety. However, deploying this system across 14 distinct bus configurations presented significant challenges:
- Varying physical dimensions and electrical layouts across models
- Integration with existing communication and telematics systems
- The need for uniform calibration, data synchronization, and reliability
NYCT required a partner capable of managing large-scale, multi-model installation complexity — while maintaining precision, safety, and compliance standards for a live, operational fleet.
Our Solution
Auto Action Technologies implemented a customized, engineering-driven installation approach for the ACE system across all vehicle variants.
Key Project Components:
- Comprehensive Fleet Surveys: Conducted detailed analyses of each bus model to identify optimal camera placement, wiring routes, and component access points.
- Prototyping & Validation: Developed prototype installations to validate hardware performance, visual accuracy, and environmental durability.
- Model-Specific Installation Procedures: Created custom installation templates and documentation to ensure consistent system deployment across all 14 models.
- Training & Knowledge Transfer: Delivered hands-on training for internal NYCT technicians and external contractors, ensuring long-term operational continuity.
- Ongoing Support & Maintenance: Established warehousing and service programs to sustain system functionality and meet all Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
Results & Impact
Through precision planning and collaboration, Auto Action Technologies delivered a fully functional, citywide Automated Camera Enforcement system that enhances compliance, visibility, and safety for both operators and passengers.
Project Outcomes:
- 1,000+ buses equipped with the ACE system across 14 vehicle types
- Standardized installation documentation for future vehicle additions
- Improved compliance enforcement with real-time data and video capture
- Full SLA and warranty support maintained post-installation
- Zero major downtime events during integration
This project underscores Auto Action’s ability to execute highly technical, compliance-driven integrations for large public fleets — ensuring safety, performance, and accountability across diverse vehicle platforms.
