MetroCam Mount

MetroCam Mount – Smart Camera Mounting System for Dubai Metro

MetroCam Mount is a custom mechanical mounting solution designed for the Dubai Metro surveillance infrastructure. The project focused on developing robust mounting bases for surveillance cameras and server units while ensuring full compatibility with metro operational standards and next-generation camera hardware.

The system was engineered using lightweight, high-strength aluminum and precision manufacturing techniques to deliver exceptional durability, stability, and long-term performance. Extensive structural and load analysis was performed to evaluate the effects of vibration and dynamic forces generated during metro operations, ensuring reliable camera positioning and continuous surveillance performance.

Key Features

• Custom camera and server mounting system for metro infrastructure.
• Lightweight and durable aluminum construction.
• Precision manufacturing using laser cutting technology.
• Support for upgraded surveillance camera models.
