However the new camera can now provide a full 360-degree view from a single mount point, including the ability to pan and zoom even in harsh weather conditions, giving insight to any risks in real-time, and allowing safety managers to track incidents in detail.

spot any tight situations, or avoid collisions with people or equipment,

Elsewhere, new Rear Collision Warning and Vehicle in Blind Spot Detection tools will provide dynamic audio and visual alerts when a driver is reversing or changing lanes, in real time.

And to give an extra oversight to dispatchers and bosses, the company has added two-way voice communication through its dash cam, meaning AI and human co-workers can stay in contact whenever needed.

Say a driver has forgotten a vital piece of kit for a job site, or needs to detour to another depot to pick up additional hardware - the dispatcher can now call them directly, without the driver being distracted by engaging with
a smartphone, or worrying about poor reception in remote areas. The system
can also deliver AI alerts such as changing weather conditions, a lower speed limit, or parking restrictions at a site.

By combining the power to see everything with the automation to act on it, we are shifting into the next gear on safety, said Johan Land, Chief Product Officer at Samsara.

The 360 Camera brings first-to-market visibility to operated equipment, AI Multicam gives road fleet drivers sharper awareness of what surrounds them, and two-way voice means the AI can respond the moment a question arises. Millions of frontline workers show up every day to keep our world running,
and we are fully committed to helping get every one of them home safely. Follow TechRadar on Google News and add us as a preferred source to get our expert news, reviews, and opinion in your feeds. Make sure to click the
