These devices are primarily used to observe and record drivers skills and have field of view forward through windshield and another camera facing backward to observe the driver. Years ago, the initial provider of these devices had been DriveCam but new providers have emerged with different offerings and technology. Some of these producted have gravitated and been productized for specific vehicle markets including Taxi, School Bus and Para Transit. There has also been recorded use of these devices for first response vehicles like EMT and Fire and Cash-In-Transit vehicles.
