Vision Techniques launches Pointer Recording System for Heavy Plant and road going vehicles

Pointer Recording System

Vision Techniques has launched a groundbreaking, cost-effective recording camera system for recording footage of all driving, whether it’s on the public highway or within a working environment such as quarries or waste tips.

The video footage is proven to help investigate any accidents, prevent false claims and designed to improve driver performance.

To save companies money, the new Pointer System’ monitors a driver’s performance, guaranteeing an increase in safety and efficiency.

The system assesses if the driver is performing economically and driving safely.

It ‘scores’ the acceleration and braking of any vehicle in order to rate driving performance – saving fuel and reducing potential accidents.

The innovative system also saves money by providing a video record of any accidents or incidents that may have taken place, aiding accident investigation, preventing false and fraudulent claims.

With the cost-effective system constantly monitoring the driver’s performance, it is easy to discover both driver inefficiencies and the cause of accidents.

Using the latest technology, the system monitors all forces acting on the vehicle during a collision. The footage will then be saved for later use.

For large plant vehicles an optional second camera can be mounted to monitor passengers or the near side, where collisions commonly occur.

Without the Pointer System, an accident investigation can be very difficult to conduct.

By detecting numerous harsh braking and acceleration events, it will identify drivers who need training.

Many operators who use heavy plant including, Tarmac, Harsco, Tata Steel, and Aggregate Industries are already utilising the new pointer system to improve driver performance.

Andrew Kendal, of Vision Techniques, said: “Investing in the Pointer System will save Quarrying and Mining companies money while improving their safety.

“With its innovative built-in features, the system is ideal for Quarry and Mining companies who carry out training on a regular basis. It is an excellent tool for monitoring a driver’s performance - with the accident recording facility as a secondary function.”

In addition to its other features, the Pointer System has a in built GPS tracking and mapping system, which can be used to monitor vehicle positioning and routing.

The unit can be hard wired into the ignition or easily plugged in via a cigarette lighter socket adaptor.

The Pointer System is suitable for any vehicle whether operating on public roads or in the Quarrying Mining or waste industry.
