Iteris Inc. is a leader in the traffic management market focused on the development and application of advanced technologies that reduce traffic congestion, minimize environmental impacts of traffic congestion and improve the safety of transportation system infrastructure. The company today announced an agreement with Qualcomm to deliver safety data to trucking fleets.

The data will be captured by Iteris’ Lane Departure Warning Systems and Meritor WABCO’s SmarTrac and OnGuard active safety systems via Qualcomm’s Mobile Computing Platform 100 and 200 series. This solution provides a single point of access to synchronize and review driver performance data on braking events, stability control events, following distances and lane departure for both individual drivers as well as the entire fleet.

Iteris’ system uses information transmitted from the vehicle by the fleet’s mobile computing platform to provide fleet operators with comprehensive fleet-wide safety summaries and the ability to access detailed information on individual drivers and events. The solution enhances Qualcomm’s Analytics Manager service, which takes data from numerous sources and converts it into actionable information by leveraging easy-to-use visual tools such as dashboards.

With this solution, fleet managers at transportation and logistics companies using Qualcomm’s onboard fleet management technology can more easily identify risky driving behavior and provide drivers with the training that the fleet managers deem appropriate to reinforce safe driving practices.
