2074 Navman Wireless has released a significantly expanded mobile app for its OnlineAVL2 fleet tracking system, enabling dispatchers, fleet managers and executives to monitor and manage fleet activities from their iPhones or iPads. Launching in the US as a free companion application to OnlineAVL2 with other markets to follow later this year, the new app provides in-depth insights into real-time fleet operations as well as the ability to send and receive messages through Navman Wireless in-vehicle terminals for fast and easy communication with drivers.

"Fleet operators don't sit at their desks all day, so they need to be able to check the location of a specific work truck or route the closest service van to a new assignment whether they're in the office, at a job site or sitting at the local coffee shop," said Renaat Ver Eecke, VP and general manager, Navman Wireless North America. "Now OnlineAVL2 customers can access the real-time data and tools they need whether they're using their desktop, laptop, smartphone or tablet. It's a major step toward better fleet management."

    For some, machine vision is the coming technology. For others, it’s already here. Although it remains a relative newcomer to the ITS sector, its effects look set to be profound and far-reaching. Encapsulating in just a few short words the distinguishing features of complex technologies and their operating concepts can sometimes be difficult. Often, it is the most subtle of nuances which are both the most important and yet also the most easily lost. Happily, in the case of machine vision this isn’t the case:
