inthinc Technology Solutions (News - Alert) Inc has recently inked strategic partnership with Mobileye, a specialist in driver safety systems and collision prevention and mitigation technologies.

This new partnership will enable inthinc to integrate Mobileye's real-time driver assistance solution, complete with camera-based lane departure warning, forward collision warning and headway monitoring warning, into its fleet management offering.

Apart to this, inthinc will also be able to utilize Mobileye’s help to provide additional collision-avoidance safety measures for fleet drivers, as well as those sharing the road in an effort to help prevent and mitigate vehicle collisions.

"Our goal in partnering with Mobileye is to provide customers with the most effective tools to reduce accidents and promote fleet safety across their organizations," said Todd Follmer, CEO of inthinc Technology Solutions. "Unlike other driving safety systems that rely on improving safety by recording driver behavior for post-trip analysis, our system changes the behavior at the time and place of a driver incident, in hopes of preventing a collision entirely or mitigating negative effects."

The strategic agreement also includes the integration of Mobileye's solution with inthinc Portal to help organizations understand where improvements are needed. The inthinc algorithm will integrate the data provided by Mobileye's solution as an additional resource in determining a driver's overall safety score.

Users use inthinc Portal as a web-based dashboard that provides fleet managers with real-time data around vehicle location (GPS), trip details, driver behavior and other performance indicators.

"inthinc's integration of our real-time collision avoidance technology into its existing solution extends both the literal vision of its drivers, and the visibility of fleet managers," said Skip Kinford, CEO for Mobileye, Inc.

Kinford said that inthinc views their solution not as an expenditure, but as an investment, both in the safety of their customers and in the reduction of accident-related costs.

Mobileye N.V. is headquartered in The Netherlands, with R&D in Israel and offices in the U.S., Cyprus and Japan. Company specializes in advanced image sensing and processing technology for automotive and other applications, with a product offering covering the entire range of vision applications.
