What is a Dash Cam?
A dash cam (dashboard camera) is a small recording device that mounts inside a vehicle and records events inside and outside of that vehicle. It can be used to identify vehicle location, road hazards and dangerous driving behaviors. The footage can be stored and reviewed to help fleet managers better manage their vehicles and their drivers.
Zubie Dash Cam is an easy to use video data solution that gives fleet managers front-facing and in-cabin visuals and delivers the video on the same simple-to-use software platform that many Zubie users currently enjoy. Simply use our powerful application to organize and analyze all of your video and telematics data.
How Do Dash Cams Work?
Zubie Dash Cam begins recording when the engine turns on. When your cameras detect certain driving events, they will automatically upload the video to the cloud for your fleet managers to review. These events include:
- Collisions
- Hard braking
- Aggressive acceleration
You can review your video in the Zubie platform along with other fleet and telematics data. Not only do dash cams give insight into what’s happening inside and outside the car or truck, but they also provide a detailed GPS history of where your vehicles have been along with other important telematics data. All of this reporting information can be customized on your Zubie web interface.
