Add Backup Camera to Thomas Built Bus, IC Bus, or Blue Bird Bus

Rostra Accessories is pleased to introduce our new line of backup camera systems for school bus applications. These unique cameras, designed for use on buses from Thomas Bus, IC Bus, and Blue Bird Bus (see part numbers and descriptions below) include an innovative mounting assembly designed to fit behind the high-mount clearance lamp above the rear door of a school bus to angle the camera in such a way that it perfectly captures the area directly behind the bus and provides a birds-eye-view to the driver in real-time and in high-definition. Rostra's school bus backup cameras are FMVSS 111 compliant and are ready to be installed out of the box with all of the hardware needed included in our complete camera and monitor systems.

Pair your Rostra backup camera system with our SDS (Student Detection System) around-bus sensor system for the ultimate in blindspot elimination for the school bus driver and to further protect your school district's fleet investment.
