FLEETDRIVE inside the vehicle ; Protection of the driver and the company ’ s assets on the road and advanced telematics that enables communication and positive coaching of drivers ,” she says .
“ Time and time again , fleet operators in the US have reported that these factors improve driving skills ; reduce the number of distracted drivers ; improve following distances ; and critically avoid expensive fraudulent insurance claims in the event of an accident .”
“ Like the US , we ’ re used to operating across vast road networks , with increasing distractions , congestion and hazards and like them we must take advantage of what is now available . Today it requires remarkably fewer resources to manage and monitor fleet operations , from identifying and rectifying issues whether it is OH & S issues and driver fatigue management , missing a drop or too much harsh braking , as well as rewarding good driving and this can all be done instantly ,” she says .
MiTAC Australia is working directly with fleet operators and through system integrators as it expands its offering of high-quality connected dash cams and ruggedised tablets , built and tested for Australian conditions .
“ It is a grave mistake to opt for cheap brands when it comes to connected dash cams ,” says Wendy . “ The quality just simply isn ’ t there and isn ’ t robust enough for Australian fleets .”
“ We know that temperatures within the cab can reach up to 70 degrees Celsius , our devices are thoroughly tested to endure the hot Australian environment and is IP41 rated with excess moisture and condensation protection .
“ Most critically , it is the quality of the vision that can determine fault and protect operators from very expensive or fraudulent insurance claims . This is why the devices record in Full HD and come with high quality STARVIS™ sensors to deliver high level detail in all lighting conditions .”
Other features include facial recognition so drivers can sign on instantly , and in-cabin cameras with built-in infrared technology that can be switched on and off as needed to record driver behaviour and monitor for signs of fatigue .
“ We are happy to help fleet operators directly , as our hardware can be integrated with any telematics solutions or recommend one of our partners ; as well as working through resellers .
“ If an Australian company feels it has a challenging or unique situation that requires some serious problem-solving , remember our global R & D teams are truly at the forefront of innovation in automotive electronics , AIOT with both design and manufacture . Together we can offer customers a broad range of cost-effective highquality solutions from off-the-shelf to completely customised open platform product that are built for purpose , backed with local operations , support and service .
