It’s no longer surprising that fleet telematics is a game-changer for logistics companies and business relying on transportation. This technology has the capability to collect data from trucks and vans enabling informed decision-making to cut costs, enhance efficiencies, protect assets, and prioritize driver safety.
The recent rise of connected camera complements fleet telematics, providing a crucial piece to the puzzle by offering visibility into operations. Connected cameras, whether forward or dual-facing, along with multi-cam systems and AI options, provide fleets with increased visibility, allowing them to monitor road activities and offer additional support in case of disputes.
The rise of connected cameras
According to a recent Berg Insight publication, the growth of video telematics is soaring as companies recognize the benefits of 24/7 visibility into what happens on the road. The forecast suggests that the active installed base will surpass 4.4 million units in North America and 1.8 million units in Europe by 2025.
The integration with fleet telematics
Fleet telematics software and connected cameras are not two separate tools; the most advanced platforms integrate them seamlessly:
- Quality video footage captures driving events along with location, speed, and other relevant data.
- Real-time transmission of connected camera data to telematics platforms, where it is presented in a user-friendly interface alongside vehicle data.
- Telematics platforms analyse footage with AI to enhance driver safety and operational efficiencies.
Connected cameras and ADAS
Connected cameras are an essential element of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. As most collisions are due to human error, technology intervenes to detect obstacles, address blind spots, and potentially prevent mistakes.
State-of-the art ADAS is an automated but adaptive technology, designed to enhance human response for a safer driving.
According to a 2021 research, half of all cars on the road in 2030 will be ADAS-enabled.
Benefits of installing connected cameras
Enhanced visibility on the road, allowing you to understand driving events in context.
Real-time alerts tailored to specific events such as collisions, near-misses, aggressive driving, deliveries, or critical destinations for the supply chain.
Driver training and safety improvements through precise footage for tailored coaching and reinforcement of road rules or company procedures.
Quick resolution of disputes, collisions, and insurance-related matters, leading to potential savings on insurance premiums.
A holistic security approach, ensuring data protection, and the ability to detect issues on the road or in parking lots not necessarily related to driving.
