Video telematics can make managers omniscient with the fleet by giving them a constant view of what is happening in and out of their vehicles with dashcams and outward-facing cameras.

Growth must be the only constant in an industry, regardless of whether or not industries and individuals want it. Aid from fleet management software stimulates growth in commercial fleets – growth in the direction of building safer and automated fleets. Self-driving has been a rage since Tesla came up with autonomous cars. However, with potent telematics software, we are on the quest to make completely automated cars a normative reality. Wondering how that is possible? Well, for that you need to continue reading this blog! What is Video Telematics? Till now you must be aware of traditional vehicle telematics systems. These systems send textual information and alerts to managers for relevant events. However, with modern technology, this vehicle management system can be upgraded to video telematics– a system that serves the same function, but with visual cues and proof. Video telematics can make managers omniscient with the fleet by giving them a constant view of what is happening in and out of their vehicles with dashcams and outward-facing cameras. Therefore, managers get all the regular vehicle telematics data along with visuals of the driver and surrounding vehicles’ movements. Comprehensive video telematics systems offer complete reports – both visual and textual. With these reports and live visual tracking, several unimaginable things become very evident in fleets – things such as proximity surveillance, advanced vehicle safety, and automated vehicles! DMS and ADAS Redefining Commercial Driving On the surface, DMS and ADAS are just like any other sensor. Video cameras capture visuals and software categorises actions as events to send alerts accordingly. However, other sensors send alerts that essentially increase productivity.
DMS and ADAS are solutions that revolutionise the way commercial vehicles will be driven – not managed. As we have already understood, DMS systems allow managers to have a better eye on drivers and ADAS allows them to have a better eye on the road. Let us look at how the two systems individually affect commercial driving by reducing road accidents. DMS for the Safer Fleet Driver monitoring systems are the safest bet in reducing road accidents due to neglectful driving. Here’s how: Zero Distraction: Smoking, distractions, drowsiness, yawning, absence, and camera blocking – are a few things that DMS will alert managers about. With correct measures, there is hardly any scope for drivers to be distracted on the road, automatically reducing accidents due to carelessness. Driver Assessment: When managers can see how drivers are in the cars, it is easier to assess drivers’ reliability. Therefore, managers can take steps to make their fleet safer than it was before careful assessment. ADAS for the Intuitive Vehicles Advanced driver assistance systems are what make self-driving cars a possibility in the near future. How? Let’s see! Higher Vigilance: Through ADAS systems, managers get notified when there is a possibility of forward collision, signal violation, lane switching, and overspeeding. If you install rear cameras, back collision is also notified for. This way, the vehicle is under much more vigilance than what a driver can do manually.
Better Connectivity: With all vehicles having cameras incorporated into them, global connectivity becomes simpler. Therefore, surrounding and traffic intuition make vehicle automation possible. With the right technology, this can lead to automatic actions that will keep vehicles from colliding with one another, even in heavy traffic conditions. Make Your Fleet Future-ready With TrackoBit!
