Tech firm Numeral IOT unveils new solution to enhance school transport safety

The real-time monitoring system for school buses, christened TransitTAG, is set to revolutionize child transportation, setting a new benchmark for child safety.

TransitTAG comprises wearable wrist tags for children, live camera feeds, and AI-driven analysis to monitor driver alertness and child behaviour. Parents and schools can track the bus's location in real-time, ensuring children's safety throughout their journey.

“We understand the anxiety parents face when their children are on the road “TransitTAG offers peace of mind by providing real-time visibility and comprehensive monitoring,” said Morris Mbetsa, CEO of Numeral IOT.

The system also includes features like instant notifications, detailed bus movement tracking, and direct communication channels between parents and the school. This level of transparency is expected to build trust between parents and schools.

Beyond TransitTAG, Numeral IOT introduced IKONTROL My Car, a telematics device for remote vehicle diagnostics, and Drive-Fi, a partnership with Airtel Kenya to provide in-car Wi-Fi. 

As Kenya continues to embrace technology, Numeral IOT's innovations highlight the country's potential as a hub for cutting-edge solutions.
