INDUSTRY SOLUTIONS

Human error is one of the common causes of traffic accidents in various reports, especially those involving commercial vehicles. Among all kinds of human errors, driver fatigue and distraction top the list. According to WHO, "drivers using mobile phones are approximately 4 times more likely to be involved in a crash than drivers not using a mobile phone." In order to reduce the number of accidents caused by driver-related factors to improve road safety and better protect drivers and cargoes, lower overall insurance premiums, increase efficiency, and ensure timely delivery to enhance your bottom line, a fleet management solution that combines driver status monitoring and vehicle tracking can help. You may know that the ADAS and DMS combination is much more powerful, but the cost is also appalling. In contrast, Jimi IoT's creative solution of integrating driver-facing cameras and GPS trackers (2G or 4G) enables fleet managers/solution providers to track vehicles, monitor drivers' alertness, and get notified at the lowest possible cost.

Driver Performance and Coaching Concern

Most existing telematics solutions could only provide information like time, speed, and location of the vehicles. This leaves fleet managers in the dark when it comes to the drivers' behavior, especially when your driver takes on a night shift or is involved in an accident. With limited knowledge of their behavior on road, it may become a bother when you have to evaluate their performance and make out targeted coaching sessions for them.

Accident Liability Determination Difficulty

According to Euro NCAP Assessment Protocol, among observable "human mistakes" that caused more than ninety percent of road accidents, human "errors" like the driver state - inattentiveness, fatigue, distraction - and inexperience play an important role. Telematics solutions can help you determine whether your driver has been speeding, but whether the driver has been talking on a cellphone, dozing off, drinking or smoking is unknown. So when an accident happens, you may be reduced to silence by the other party without supporting proof and you may have to take all the liabilities, which will certainly cost your business a fortune.

Fleet Compliance Crisis

According to Chapter II, Article 6 of REGULATION (EU) 2019/2144, motor vehicles shall be equipped with driver drowsiness and attention warning and advanced driver distraction warning. Other regions and countries have or are about to pass similar regulations. Currently, most fleet businesses (car rental services, ridesharing companies, trucking services, hazmat transportation services) have already adopted fleet solutions combining trackers and a tracking platform. So how to quickly upgrade the existing system to comply with the emerging regulations and take a lead in the business at the lowest cost is a pressing issue.

SOLUTION

DEVICE

Jimi IoT’s  vehicle trackers and DMS cameras installed in fleet vehicles collect and report telematics data (location, speed, and time) as well as information about driver statuses to the cloud-based management platform. If the driver shows any signs of drowsiness, distraction, or tiredness, the DMS camera will instantly give out audible in-cab alerts to warn the driver to correct their actions before it’s too late and send alert notifications to the platform, and then record and save relevant images in the device or to the cloud-based platform over cellular if required; while the trackers will help you pinpoint the precise locations of your en-route fleet vehicles and give live feeds on vehicle speed, battery, or more.

PLATFORM

Jimi IoT’s Tracksolid Pro platform receives telematics data from trackers and images of driver attention and alertness from DMS cameras and analyzes these data to create detailed performance reports on vehicle fleets and drivers. It can even score drivers and facilitate coaching session planning based on these data. It also allows fleet managers to create efficient driving routes, track vehicle inventory, and restrict operating areas as required; while end users can know their own performance via the Tracksolid Pro app and improve their behavior and safety awareness accordingly.

BENEFITS

In-Fleet Monitoring for Driver Improvement

The JC400P DMS camera can detect and record unsafe driver behaviors. E.g. if your driver uses a cellphone, smokes in the car, or dozes off while driving-your driver receives in-cab alerts and you get notified instantly. You can know what your drivers are doing and the level of their alertness behind the wheel and access event images on Tracksolid Pro. Such insights can prevent unfortunate accidents and help you coach drivers at the moment and in the future.

Image On-Demand for Evidentiary Support

The cellular connectivity of the GPS tracker enables the fast upload of images captured by the JC400P driver-facing camera when any of the unsafe driver behaviors is detected, which can be used as supporting evidence in the event of accidents or compliance.

Fewer Expenses

With images, you can get data regarding your drivers.  This will help you identify driverbehavior-related issues such as drowsiness and distraction and enhance your driver's safety awareness through real-time and future coaching.  A higher level of alertness means fewer accidents and millions of dollars in accidental damage and insurance premiums saved, avoid significant reputational damage, and ensure timely delivery of cargoes.

Situational Awareness

Even if in a rare case, your driver is involved in a traffic accident, they can always use the panic button to notify you, so you can immediately send all necessary help to the site. And you can also activate the microphone remotely to listen to and record the ambient sound to get a better idea on the whole situation.
