Qualcomm Inc. and Con-way Truckload have announced plans to convert Con-way's entire fleet of tractors to Qualcomm's next-generation OmniVision mobile computing platform.
Con-way Truckload selected the system
for its flexibility and variety of value-added services, and with the objective to improve operational performance and customer service while enhancing the quality of life for its drivers.
"After examining several different mobile computing options and asking our drivers for input, the clear choice was Qualcomm's OmniVision system - hands down," said Herb Schmidt, president of Con-way Truckload.
With the OmniVision system, drivers enjoy a color touch-screen display and text-to-speech messaging for easy access to critical information. The text-to-speech feature helps improve driver safety and productivity by eliminating the need to pull over and stop the vehicle to read a text message. The system also uses over-the-air programming for upgrades so that the truck does not have to be pulled off the road to receive the benefit of software updates.
The OmniVision mobile computing platform is an integrated system consisting of software, hardware and network infrastructure, enabling delivery of two-way data communications and value-added services to enterprises in a mobile environment.
