Smart AI Dashboard Cameras
for Enhanced Fleet Safety

Traditional dash cam systems merely capture video footage of what's happening on the road and in the vehicle for future viewing by a human. However, humans have to go through lots of video footage to find what they are looking for and then act on it after-the-fact.

Dash cam systems that use Artificial Intelligence (in the form of machine vision) understand what is happening in real-time, without human input. Thus, they not only provide the video footage, but they also create the “event” data that is used to direct the driver to change their behavior immediately and to also precisely direct driver managers as to what is important to look at.

By channeling relevant information directly to drivers in real-time and driver managers after-the-fact, AI-enabled dash cams offer a much more effective and efficient way of improving and maintaining safe and fuel-efficient driving standards.

MiX Vision AI is a camera system that uses Artificial Intelligence to deliver Advanced Driving Assistance (ADAS) capabilities. MiX Vision AI can detect risky driving behaviour including mobile phone use, fatigue, distraction, not wearing a seatbelt, smoking, unsignaled lane departure, unsafe following distance and warn drivers of an imminent forward collision.
The instant risky driving behaviour is detected, the driver is alerted through an audible or visual notifications (or both) that they need to correct their behaviour before it escalates into a collision. This primary, real-time intervention significantly reduces the amount of risky driving behaviour in a fleet.

Addressing risky driving behaviour is the key to holistically managing driver performance, as it results in poor safety outcomes including collisions and inefficient fuel use.

MiX Vision AI's risky driving behavior events and associated video footage are available for driver managers in the MiX Fleet Manager portal and on the MiX Mobile app.

Furthermore, a driver can use the MyMiX driver engagement app to view their driver score and see the video footage for their risky driving behavior. This creates an awareness that is the start of the process of improving safe and fuel-efficient driving performance.

By providing the video footage and associated event data to both drivers and driver managers in an easy-to-view way, the driver performance management process is made much more effective and efficient.

• Monitors risky driving behavior in real-time to improve fleet safety.
• Offers a more effective and efficient driver performance management tool to improve safe and fuel-efficient driving.
• Protects drivers and the company against false insurance claims.
• Video footage can be used to analyse accidents after the fact to determine.
• Helps monitor compliance to meet fleet health and safety policy requirements

All transport fleets are different and have different problems, needs and constraints. As the fleet manager, you can choose which risky driving behaviour events you want to monitor.
The road-facing camera can detect unsignaled lane changes, unsafe following distance, and alert on imminent forward collision.

The driver-facing dash cam can detect fatigue, distraction, mobile phone use, not wearing a seatbelt and smoking.

The fleet manager can request that certain events are disabled if they are not needed. In our experience with customer implementation of driver monitoring solutions, some customers prefer to start with a simple configuration and let that bed-in and be accepted by drivers before turning on additional features. MiX Vision AI also allows for this approach.
Note that in addition to the risky driving behaviours detected by MiX Vision AI, there are also poor driving performance behaviours which are detected by the MiX Onboard Computer such as speeding, harsh braking, harsh acceleration and harsh cornering.

You can view MiX Vision AI video footage (alongside asset information) in MiX Fleet Manager under ‘Live tracking', ‘Historical tracking', ‘Trip timeline' or in the Info Hub.

Video footage for each detected event is automatically downloaded from the vehicle in 8 second segments for each event. The manager can also make a Video on Demand request for a 2 minute 30 second segment of footage if they want to see more activities leading up to and after a specific event, or even when no event was detected. This is useful for collision reconstruction and insurance claims.

Driver managers can also view video footage for risky driving behaviours in the MiX Mobile app.
Drivers have access to the MyMiX driver engagement app to view their score, trips, events and video footage.

MiX Vision AI cameras are designed to be unobtrusive when installed so as to not distract the driver from doing their job. The cameras automatically start video recording when the vehicle ignition is switched on, meaning the driver does not have to do anything to activate it.

Drivers are engaged in real-time through the AI Driving Coach, which is mounted on the vehicle dashboard. This tool delivers real-time visual and audible alerts that are triggered when a driver triggers a risky driving behavior event.

Drivers are also engaged, after-the-fact, using the MyMiX driver engagement app. Using the app, a driver can view their driver score and see the video footage for their risky driving behaviors. This creates an awareness that is the start of the process for improving safe and fuel-efficient driving performance.

By providing the video footage and associated event data to both drivers and driver managers in an easy-to-view way, the driver performance management process is made much more effective and efficient.
