The next-generation of AI-powered distraction and fatigue detection cameras for commercial vehicles is being planned with a new link-up between Microlise and video telematics provider Streamax.
Designed to tackle one of the biggest causes of road incidents, the new camera system combines AI-driven distraction and fatigue detection with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). With 80% of road incidents involving distraction and fatigue remaining a significant contributor to collisions, the solution focuses on prevention rather than reaction.
The inward-facing camera uses artificial intelligence to detect high-risk distracted behaviours to alert drivers in real-time and support safer driving habits. Simultaneously, ADAS technology monitors the road ahead, warning drivers of potential hazards.
The partnership will also see the Streamax technology integrated into Microlise’s wider multi-camera platform for commercial fleets. The solution is built to give fleet operators a complete view of their vehicles and drivers, combining forward-facing, blind-spot, driver monitoring and other camera options with the ability to download footage quickly and easily.
With drivers found to be solely at fault in only 25% of collisions, the system also helps provide context and evidence to support drivers following incidents.
Nadeem Raza, Microlise’s CEO, said: “At Microlise, our goal is to use technology to help ensure everyone gets home safely at the end of their working day. Our partnership with Streamax allows us to deliver a powerful, intelligent solution that addresses real-world driver safety challenges.”
Bill Wang, CEO at Streamax, added: “Streamax thrives on working hand in hand with our customers, placing their success at the heart of our value. Partnering with Microlise allows us to turn AI-driven insights into tangible road safety outcomes, ensuring every journey is safer and more efficient for the world’s most demanding transport operations.”
