Microlise has launched a new multi-way camera product, designed to integrate with its telematics offering.

The company has reported that the product is set to “disrupt the fleet camera market by making next generation technology accessible for more fleets”.

The technology can record up to four high definition video streams simultaneously and each camera can be configured flexibly, with several different options available to operators.

Footage from the cameras is recorded by a secure Digital Video Recorder installed inside the vehicle, which is linked to a Microlise telematics unit.

Video clips are transferred over the mobile network when requested and just one SIM is required, meaning a single airtime contract for tracking, telematics and the camera solution.

Microlise’s executive director product strategy, Matthew Hague, (pictured) said: “Our new camera solution has some of the very best functionality on the market – yet we are delivering it at an extremely competitive price point.

“Our aim is to make it possible for more fleet operators to deploy next generation camera technology by making a more attractive value proposition than currently exists on the market.

"We’ve been able to achieve this by sharing technology already in use in our telematics hardware.”

Full integration with Microlise Fleet Performance telematics makes it possible to review video from any section of a vehicle’s route, in context, via the Microlise online user interfac

Hague said: “We’ve worked very hard to deliver the specifications we want, both in relation to the camera hardware and software.

"We’re very happy with the result which we believe will prove to be a very attractive proposition for fleets operating both light and heavy vehicles commercially.”
