“Have you ever wondered what happened as you were reviewing driver performance behavior reporting and wished you could have been there to see what happened,” said Michelle Calloway, director of GM Envolve OnStar.  “With OnStar DualCam, you will be able to see what happened.”

The OnStar DualCam cameras capture interior and exterior video, so managers can always see what happens during recorded events. It is the only camera that connects directly to the OnStar vehicle insights app.

Also, drivers receive visual and audio alerts at the moment to correct any behaviors like using their cell phone, eating and drinking while driving, and maybe even hard braking.

Calloway added that OnStar DualCam reporting will highlight the areas of highest risk, and those videos are easy to download and share so fleet managers can use them to verify any claims.

Benefits of Dual-View Cameras

OnStar DualCam offers several key benefits, according to GM Envolve, since it is a dual-facing camera system. Those are:

Benefits of Real-Time Alerts

OnStar DualCam’s ability to provide real-time alerts is valuable to fleets, according to GM Envolve, and offers the benefits of:

  • Helping drivers improve their behavior behind the wheel. Encourage objective safety training with interior and exterior camera views for more accurate feedback.

  • Drivers receive audio and visual alerts that allow them to correct behavior in real-time.

  • Coaching drivers on unsafe behaviors and distractions like eating or using their cell phones.

Benefits of Fleet-Wide Reporting

  • Recordings seamlessly and easily upload to OnStar Vehicle Insights app vehicle data reports. Identify and address the highest priority risks without getting bogged down in the details.

  • Machine vision and artificial intelligence are used to detect and review false positives.
