Crane Trucks
Crane truck camera systems for safe lifting.
The crane truck camera system designed for boom-area visibility, ground crew safety, lifting operation documentation, and the multi-angle coverage that crane operations require — including wireless A/V cameras for boom-mounted positions where wired cameras can't go.
Built for boom trucks, mobile cranes, knuckle boom cranes, and crane truck operations.
Where cameras typically go on a crane truck.
Crane truck installations include both standard chassis-mounted cameras and specialized wireless A/V cameras for boom-mounted positions. The boom camera is the most distinctive feature of crane configurations — it provides operating-envelope visibility that no other camera position can match. Remember: only the A/V signal is wireless. Power is wired from the boom's electrical system.

Coverage built for crane operations.
Problem
Boom and lifting envelope visibility
The boom operating envelope contains the load, the load path, and the eventual placement location — and the operator can't see all of it from the cab. Spotters help but introduce communication latency. Cameras mounted on the boom or load location give operators direct visibility into the lift envelope, eliminating communication-error risk.
Solution
Wireless A/V cameras for boom-mounted positions
Cameras mounted on a moving and rotating boom can't use wired A/V connections — the cable would be torn apart by the operating motion. skEYEvue supports wireless A/V cameras specifically for these positions. The video signal transmits wirelessly back to the in-cab display and the mDVR. Power for the boom-mounted camera comes from the crane's electrical system or a dedicated battery — only the A/V signal is wireless, not the power.
Problem
Ground crew safety in operating zones
Ground crews work directly underneath and adjacent to suspended loads, in the spaces with the highest consequence of failure. The operator's visibility to these positions is limited or zero from the cab. Multi-angle ground-level cameras give operators direct visibility into ground crew positions, replacing the need for spotters in the highest-risk zones.
Solution
Multi-angle ground-level coverage
Cameras positioned on the cab and chassis cover ground-level blind zones, ground crew positions, and the immediate operating area around the crane. Operators see ground crew movements directly on in-cab monitors. Communication-error risk is reduced. Spotters are repositioned to lower-risk locations.
Problem
Lift operation documentation and incident reconstruction
Crane incidents trigger immediate OSHA investigations, insurance claims, and operational reviews. Without comprehensive video documentation of the lift environment, incident reconstruction is extremely difficult. With multi-angle HD documentation, investigations resolve faster and operations resume sooner — often with safety improvements that prevent recurrence.
Solution
Comprehensive lift documentation
Every camera feed records continuously to the skEYE-One mDVR. Lifts are documented from setup through completion. When incidents occur, multi-angle HD video supports OSHA investigation, insurance claim resolution, and internal safety review. When operations go smoothly, the documentation supports training, quality review, and customer communication.

Recommended for crane trucks
Complete with wireless A/V
Multi-camera fleet system + boom-mounted wireless A/V
Built on the skEYE-One mDVR with channel support for both wired and wireless A/V cameras. Boom-mounted cameras transmit video wirelessly from positions where wired connections aren't possible. Ground-level cameras provide multi-angle blind-zone coverage. Wireless is the A/V signal — power is wired from the boom's electrical system.
Typical configuration
Front + rear + 2 side blind-spot + boom-mounted (wireless A/V) + outrigger area + optional AI safety = 6–7 channels
Includes
skEYE-One mDVR · 1TB SSD · Wireless A/V camera support · Cloud platform · Live view · Multi-camera dashboard
Pricing
Base hardware from $890 · Full configuration custom-quoted per vehicle

No alternative recommended
Crane operations universally require multi-camera coverage for safety and documentation. Single-camera packages (Essential, Vision, Guardian) are not configured for crane operating environments.
Best when: If you operate a smaller boom truck or knuckle boom application that you're not sure requires the full Complete configuration, talk to us during your discovery call — we'll be honest about whether Complete is over-spec'd for your specific use case.
