I've got no clue honestly, I've seen the same thing on buses over here, looks way too big for what I think it is but my guess is it is some sort of device that starts beeping at the driver if their getting too close to another vehicle in front of them?

It's a "Mobileye", A safty system that beeps every time the driver is not keeping distance from the vehicle in front of him or when the bus is changing lanes without using the signaling lights.
It's an annoying device that only disturbe during driving.
Me, personaly, I don't pay attantion to the beeps, the system tend to beep spontanicly regardless to the road and trafic condition.
