Nauto announced the introduction of new telematics capabilities offering visibility into vehicle tracking, utilization, misuse, and maintenance planning.
Nauto's First Telematics System
Nauto's latest offering delivers telematics alongside AI-powered driver and vehicle safety capabilities on one device and software platform.
Nauto has enhanced its safety capabilities with new detectors that are designed to provide distinct alerts that differentiate between pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists, when there is a risk detected of colliding with one of these vulnerable road users (VRUs).
A statistic from the CDC indicates that in 2021 one in six people who died in crashes were pedestrians while the average size of the verdict in the U.S. trucking industry has gone up by 867% from 2010 to 2018, according to the US Chamber of Commerce Institute of Legal Reform.
"We are thrilled to announce the integration of core telematics functionality into our safety platform," said Yoav Banin, chief product officer of Nauto. "With this enhancement, we're streamlining the fleet management experience, offering a comprehensive solution that simplifies the complex landscape of multiple technologies. Our goal is to provide fleets with a single, powerful solution that not only enhances driver and road safety, but also optimizes day-to-day operations and reduces cost. Furthermore, the new detector for vulnerable road users represents a significant milestone on the Road to Zero fatalities."
How Nauto Addresses Commercial Fleet Challenges
Modern commercial fleets face safety and operational challenges, including collision-related losses, a surge in fatalities and injuries, elevated driver turnover rates, diminished productivity, escalated fuel, and insurance costs, increasing operational costs, and the growing expenses associated with technology management.
