Hubio launches 3G camera, telematics and tracking system

Hubio Fleet has launched a new integrated 3G vehicle camera and tracking unit to coincide with an upgrade of its Fleet Manager platform.

The unit - which is suitable for installation in a car, van or truck - combines all the benefit of a telematics unit with GPS vehicle tracking and driver behaviour monitoring, with a high quality camera.

It ensures an incident is captured on film to help protect the operator against the growing problem of staged accidents, which is increasing insurance premiums.

High quality images are automatically uploaded via the Cloud to the Fleet Manager platform over a private 3G network.

“With the majority of larger fleets being self-insured the camera plays a vital role in providing filmed assets to support the First Notification of Loss. The assets help support and speed up taking control of the vehicle recovery and repair which is vital in helping keep incident management costs down. Video footage can also support fleets if a claim reaches court,” said Russell Olive, Hubio Fleet’s general manager.
