Next generation telematics specialist, 8189 Risk Technology, has signed a regional partnership with Singapore-based Quantum Inventions (QI). The two companies are developing a solution that enables users to see driver behaviour information through the same device.

QI develops and deploys dynamic navigation, routing and traffic information services for consumers, enterprises and government systems. The company delivers its connected services integrating real-time traffic, map, navigation and other context-sensitive applications via devices plugged in to car dashboards. Its solutions are used by everyone from individual drivers to large fleets.

Together, Risk and QI driver behaviour data is collected by monitoring core parameters such as acceleration, deceleration, speed, location and time of day. This information can be used by QI to develop its proposition for a usage based insurance (UBI) offering or for a game-based application which encourages drivers to improve their driver score.
