Video telematics innovator SmartWitness have released a major update to SmartView, their state-of-the-art video tracking software for fleets.

The cloud-based software puts fleet managers in full control of their fleets’ safety and offers realtime insight with instant FNOL (First Notification of Loss) in the event of a collision. Long term costs savings are also seen in improved fuel efficiency and improved safety records due to better driver education and training from the built in behaviour metrics.
The updated SmartView platform has several new features including:
• On demand HD video downloads for multiple cameras including interior cameras for all fleet vehicles.
• Live data and video sent to fleet managers and insurers within seconds on the event of incidents.
• Maps feature that shows you exactly where all your fleet are at any time.
• Tracking shows route taken and position at any given time so historical use of vehicles can be monitored.
• Driver and vehicle analysis on active time, idle time, distance travelled, speed, acceleration, braking, turn, and shock events with easy to view graphs.
• Safety-critical events like Panic Button and Severe Shock upload HD video automatically and instantly.
• This can all be viewed on any device via the SmartView web portal which updates every 15 seconds.
• Updated support for 4ch and 8ch systems: SmartWitness’ own CP4 and CRX devices.
A pilot program consisting of over 100 business and 1,000 vehicles was implemented to gain feedback. These fleets saw an average reduction in insurance disputes of 38% and a 25% reduction in the number of incidents.
The resulting system has now been adopted by the British Truck Racing Association as their VAR (Video Assistant Referee) system, and judges on race days will be able to pull up incident footage to check on any possible infringements of the rules.
