Leaders In Fleet
Management Integrate Driver Assistance Technology Into Reporting Solution
SALT
LAKE CITY — June 15, 2011 — inthinc Technology Solutions Inc., a global
telematics company centered on fleet management and driver safety solutions,
today announced a strategic partnership with Mobileye, the market leader in
driver safety systems and collision prevention and mitigation technologies.
inthinc will integrate Mobileye’s real-time driver assistance solution,
complete with camera-based lane departure warning, forward collision warning
and headway monitoring warning, into its fleet management offering.
Mobileye provides additional collision-avoidance safety measures for fleet
drivers, as well as those sharing the road in an effort to help prevent and
mitigate vehicle collisions.
“Our
goal in partnering with Mobileye is to provide customers with the most
effective tools to reduce accidents and promote fleet safety across their
organizations,” said Todd Follmer, CEO of inthinc Technology Solutions. “Unlike
other driving safety systems that rely on improving safety by recording driver
behavior for post-trip analysis, our system changes the behavior at the time
and place of a driver incident, in hopes of preventing a collision entirely or
assuaging negative effects.”
Mobileye’s
solution will be integrated into the inthinc Portal—a web-based dashboard that
provides fleet managers with real-time data around vehicle location (GPS), trip
details, driver behavior and other performance indicators. The portal delivers
each driver’s ‘score’ to help organizations understand where improvements are
needed. The inthinc algorithm will integrate the data provided by Mobileye’s
solution as an additional resource in determining a driver’s overall safety
score.
“inthinc’s
integration of our real-time collision avoidance technology into its existing
solution extends both the literal vision of its drivers, and the visibility of
fleet managers,” said Skip Kinford, CEO for Mobileye, Inc. “inthinc views our
solution not as an expenditure, but as an investment, both in the safety of
their customers and in the reduction of accident-related costs.”
inthinc’s
partnership with Mobileye will not only add valuable camera-based functionality
to its arsenal of driver behavior and fleet management capabilities, but will
also allow customers to manage all aspects of safety and fleet monitoring from
one unique source.
