Camera Placement Considerations for Long-Nosed Vehicles
Placing Cameras
It is important to keep vehicle type/shape in mind when considering camera placement� Also, it is important to keep in
mind the physicality of the vehicle when placing cameras� Watch out for mirrors and other vehicle elements that can
create a blind spot in the camera view�
General Camera Placement Considerations
When considering where to mount the cameras, it is important to follow these general guidelines:
• Place the cameras as high and as centered as possible to ensure that there are no immediate obstructions in the
camera’s field of view.
Examples of Camera Placement on Commercial Vehicles
Examples of Camera Placement on School Buses
Mount the camera at the tip of the hood
on vehicles with “long noses” to get the
maximum field of view.
You can see more of the road surface
by lowering the front camera to the tip
or nose of the hood�
When mounting cameras on vehicles
with long noses, you should consider
that vehicle elements such as the roof
of the cab or the side mirrors might
obstruct the camera’s field of view.
