PeopleNet has partnered with Instructional Technologies Inc. (ITI) to bring driver training technology to PeopleNet customers via the PeopleNet BLU platform.
PeopleNet provides intelligent GPS,
onboard solutions and mobile communications.
Risk-management specialist ITI applies technology developed in advanced pilot training to the trucking industry.
ITI's Pro-TREAD and TREAD-1 programs currently provide sophisticated, interactive driver training to some 170 fleets in the U.S. and Canada. These programs will be viewable on the PeopleNet BLU platform, which changes the way drivers interact with onboard systems in the cab.
In partnership with PeopleNet, Pro-TREAD will provide preemptive, targeted driver training in the cab in response to real-time performance data collected from trucks on the road. PeopleNet customers can already use this data with PeopleNet's PerformX application to monitor driver behavior and the health of a truck's engine, drive train and other operational systems.
Driver-related performance data can include hard-braking, speeding, hours-of-service, tailgating, excessive G-forces, and other recorded events.
PeopleNet BLU onboard platform provides a totally new, intuitive interface for drivers. The seven-inch, sharp, full-color display is easy to read and can impart information quickly. The touch-screen enables graphic menus, full video and audio capabilities, and rapid 3rd party development through an in-cab application platform founded on the Windows CE platform. Using PeopleNet's BLU, drivers will interact easily with Pro-TREAD training programs.
Applications developed by the companies will be commercially available throughout 2008.
