Challenge
Most of the time we do not think much how it affects fuel and vehicle maintenance and everyone have its own driving style. Aggressive acceleration, harsh braking, harsh cornering and over speeding pose these are the threats not only to the driver himself but also to other road users. Besides, these cases of inappropriate driver behaviour result in operational costs that otherwise can be avoided.
More exhaust gas emissions produced due to inefficient driving, thus, increasing the negative environmental impact on our planet. Making cities greener is a serious challenge that countries have to deal with all around the globe.
Solution
TrackingHAWK has got a solution – green driving functionality that collects data on acceleration, braking, over speeding, harsh cornering and no-load engine operation. This information is instantly analyzed. If the received values are beyond the set parameters, the device sends a command to the LED or Buzzer installed in the driver’s cab and alerts that he or she is driving inefficiently. The same information is also sent to a server for further analytics if required.
We have a special application to make it easier for a driver to keep track of his or her driving style. Here, a driver can see the parameters monitored by green driving solution, switch between the private and business trip modes, and see the history of the trips.
There is a possibility to evaluate the driving scores and accordingly allocate salary or bonuses of drivers to motivate them even more. Green driving solution is a very good example of how modern technology can help not only develop business, but also increase road safety and reduce negative impact on our planet. It is easily enabled and parameterized in our Configurator.
