The concept of an automated system for pre-trip monitoring of the technical condition of buses based on the video registration method is proposed. The approach to the analysis of the technical condition of the bus parameters is based on the representation of a digital image of the bus in the form of a matrix and the comparison of the characteristics of the matrix cells with the standard. The use of an automated system for pre-trip (and post-trip) monitoring of the technical condition of buses will help eliminate subjectivity in determining the technical condition of buses, allow to solve this problem in a few seconds, reduce labor costs and increase the level of bus operation safety management, which is important for large passenger bus companies.
