Follow on Google News | Dash Camera integration within Frotcom improves road safetySpeeding and dash cam events detected by Garmin PNDs can now be configured and analyzed in Frotcom.
By: Frotcom Having a Garmin connected to Frotcom's GPS tracker, that's nothing new. But now you can have your Garmin transmitting speeding alerts to Frotcom. These speeding alerts consider the local speed limit of each street and road where known. So Garmin PNDs* connected to Frotcom's GPS trackers will now be able to help you further improve your drivers' safety. Moreover, with an onboard Garmin device equipped with a dash cam, like the Garmin dēzlCam™ or DriveAssist™ Finally, in the case of the DriveAssist™ Frotcom will alert you of an event and – in the case of accident detection – notify you of the corresponding video file name on the Garmin (using the SD card installed in the Garmin device). The best of both worlds Garmin and Frotcom's combination now brings together all the benefits you've come to expect from completely integrated navigation - including routing, communication with your drivers in a simple, clear and economical way, detection of excess speed, detection and video registration of accidents and warnings on forward collision and lane departure. This higher degree of device integration with Frotcom means your company can decrease driver stress via Garmin's intuitive driver-assistance, as well as promote peace of mind and safer driving behavior via the Garmin PND alerts. Garmin integration in Frotcom thus provides an overall better driver performance and a fundamentally better business outcome for both you and your customers. Market Demand There has been significant growth within the global dashboard camera market due to the introduction of stringent road safety regulations, affordable prices and increasing awareness about the benefits of dashboard cameras. Insurers are increasingly likely to accept footage from dashboard-mounted video cameras as evidence to be used in the event of a claim, and in some countries such as Russia, the onus is on the driver to prove they were in the right. "The dēzlCam™ and DriveAssist™ According to Renato Ferreira, CTO at Frotcom International, "For many years, Garmin PNDs with their advanced Fleet Management Interface (FMI) have been a great complement to Frotcom, enabling fleet managers to exchange messages with their drivers, and to send them the location of the next service. Garmin FMI 3.5 brings the feature set to a new level, by adding safety capabilities to the package. With close collaboration from the Garmin support team, we were able to integrate these new features in Frotcom service. In fact, we are happy to be the first Fleet Telematics organization to use this new video technology from Garmin. Now, not only can fleet managers dispatch their vehicles and drivers to their job locations, they can also monitor how safe they get there." Reach out to your local Frotcom office and we'll help you make the most of these new features! * Garmin PNDs need to have FMI protocol version 3.5 or higher End
