Teletrac Navman, a leading connected mobility platform and Vontier company, today announces the launch of its Enhanced Privacy Mode, a feature for Smart Dashcam users. This innovative mode empowers fleet managers to prioritise driver safety while upholding privacy standards, addressing a significant concern highlighted in a recent survey.
A survey by Teletrac Navman revealed that while 85% of fleets see AI as the future of safety, 23% expressed concerns about data privacy related to cameras and AI. Enhanced Privacy Mode directly responds to these concerns by allowing fleet managers to pause driver-facing video recordings while still capturing critical in-cab audio alerts and inward alert data. This ensures that unsafe driver behaviors, such as mobile phone use and erratic driving, can still be identified without compromising driver privacy.
With Enhanced Privacy Mode activated, fleets can effectively manage dashcam recordings while maintaining AI event detection capabilities. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for unions and drivers who may be apprehensive about in-cab cameras, ultimately helping to enhance driver engagement and trust.
“Fleets must recognize the importance of driver comfort regarding data collection, especially when it comes to sensitive information,” said Andrew Rossington, Chief Product Officer, at Teletrac Navman. “With features like Enhanced Privacy Mode, we can protect employees while simultaneously leveraging advancements in safety.”
Teletrac Navman’s Smart Dashcam is equipped with dual forward and inward-facing AI-enabled cameras, revolutionizing driver assistance and status monitoring. Each minute of footage is logged in real-time, enabling fleets to gain unprecedented insights into driver behavior. Powered by AI, fleet operators can identify actions to reward, areas for improvement, and develop accurate driver performance scores.
“Implementing this feature benefits customers who are sensitive to drivers' concerns about privacy while still wanting to monitor inward alert data,” continued Rossington. “This feature was designed with the driver in mind to respect their privacy and facilitate the adoption of inward-facing dashcams.”
