The integrated IT1000 vehicle camera combines high-definition video, GPS tracking, three-axis accelerometer and 3G technologies, removing the need for any additional telematics hardware to be fitted. This can be used alongside a web-based interface to provide all the functionality of live vehicle tracking, fleet reporting and forward-facing cameras, enabling companies to boost productivity, achieve efficiencies, improve driver behaviour and protect against avoidable insurance costs.
In addition, a detailed reporting package offers added operational insight across a wide range of fleet data, making it possible to monitor vehicle and driver performance as well automate back-office processes such as private mileage and timesheets.
Meanwhile, a driver behaviour league table, supported by exception reports for speeding, idling and harsh manoeuvring, will allow unsafe driving to be quickly detected and help identify employees that could benefit from added training.
‘Every tracking system is essentially a black box that has GPS to provide location and speed, along with an accelerometer that can record movement in three axis,’ said Nick Plowman, chief technology officer at Intelligent Telematics. ‘Therefore, we have recreated what is in a black box in a vehicle camera, so we can combine the functionality of both in a single system. This has enabled us to deliver an all-in-one solution that combines all the benefits of a forward-facing camera and vehicle tracking simply and cost-effectively.’
