Our
Solution
dSense- our IoT based location and live analytics solution was deployed to track and monitor the location of their cabs in real-time. Bluetooth low energy (BLE) Smart Beacons were installed in every cab to capture their real-time location and these beacons continuously monitored vehicle metrics to identify rash driving. In addition to this, powerful and interactive dSense web and mobile dashboards helped the client management team to monitor cabs, driver locations, analytical reports and time spent by drivers at specific locations.
By implementing dSense, our client was able to obtain all their required metrics and reports quickly from vehicles in real-time with minimal infrastructure and effort, in addition to significantly enhancing their fleet management.
