GM Envolve has launched the OnStar DualCam, its newest add-on product fleet managers can purchase through OnStar Vehicle Insights. The camera solution is designed to enhance fleet management through real-time driver coaching and dual-view video capture.
The OnStar DualCam is integrated seamlessly with the OnStar Vehicle Insights app using vehicle and video telematics through a single platform. With its fleet-wide data reporting, managers can identify risks, download and share videos, and more.
“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.
