RideView runs on 10+ camera models from three manufacturers — same AI, same features, regardless of which you choose.

Driver ID via QR, NFC, RFID, or face recognition attaches every trip to the right person. Standby and sentry mode keep cameras active when the vehicle isn't. OTA updates and remote diagnostics keep your fleet manageable at scale.

  • OBD/fuse-box installation options for all fleet vehicle types
  • Self-install with auto-calibration — no specialist engineers required

SPEED LIMIT VIOLATION

RideView reads posted speed limit signs directly from the camera feed. The sign is in the footage. Your team can show a driver exactly what the limit was — and the driver can look at the same frame and disagree. Evidence, not assertion.

Distracted driving

Most driver monitoring infers attention from head position. That works for the obvious cases and misses the most common one: a phone resting on the lap barely moves the head at all. RideView reads pose and gaze together, with the road-facing view for context — so a glance down registers even when the head stays level.

Drowsy Driving

Most systems wait for the eyes to close — and by the time they do, the microsleep has already begun. RideView watches the blink itself: slower blinks, drooping lids, reducing openness, all of which appear before closure. The alert fires at the first signal, then a five-second window classifies what actually happened. That two-stage design is patented.

15+ risky behaviours detected on the camera, with an instant in-cab voice alert — configurable to how each fleet operates. Prevention, not documentation.

The AI is efficient enough to run on plain ARM cores, and will use a GPU/DSP where the device has one — so real AI safety isn’t confined to premium hardware.

If the system isn’t certain, it does not fire an incorrect alert. It stays silent.

Neural Network Video Compression.

3× the footage, half the data bill.

The moment the AI detects an event, the clip is saved — compressed using NNVC to half the standard file size. Encrypted. Tagged with GPS coordinates, timestamp, and road context.

When LTE is available, flagged clips move to the cloud automatically. Priority order: severity first.

If the clip is needed weeks later and hasn't uploaded yet? A standby push wakes the camera and retrieves it on demand — even if the vehicle hasn't moved since.

  • 135 hours stored on a standard 128GB card.
  • 50% smaller files vs standard encoding.
  • Footage retrievable weeks after capture.

Cloud AI

AI review in the cloud, cutting false positives further.

86% → 94%

Distracted driving precision

75% → 90%

Drowsy driving precision

91% → 99%

Tailgating precision

Up to 15%

eduction in false positives

Events go back through vision-language models in the cloud — AI that reasons about what a clip shows, not just what’s in it. It does what a human review team does: for less, with the same judgement every time,at any fleet size.

A hard brake in rain and heavy traffic isn’t the same event as one in clear conditions — so weather, traffic and location feed the score that decides what needs acting on.

Workflows

What reaches your team is what deserves their attention

These are the workflows a fleet lives in, and all of them are open through our APIs — use them in our dashboard, or surface them in your own.

01  Driver safety & coaching

AI triage picks the events that matter. Self-coaching puts them straight to the driver — making coaching workable for a fleet with no safety team, and saving hours for one with a big one.

Outcome:

Fewer events. Better conversations. Behaviour that actually changes.

02  On-demand video

An incident is reported, someone needs that exact moment on video, and everything after depends on finding it — in a few clicks. Our own compression keeps three times as much footage on the card, so older events are there too.

Outcome:

Claims investigated in minutes. Drivers exonerated with evidence.

03 Live-view & push to talk

Live streaming gives dispatch a view of any vehicle the moment they need one. When something can't wait, push-to-talk opens a line to the driver straight away. The same button lets the driver call you.

Outcome:

Real-time intervention — no phone, no separate device, no delay.

04 Enterprise fleet controls

Medium and large fleets are organised by depot, region, or contract. Tags, groups, hierarchies, user roles, access controls, and custom events let the platform match that structure — so nobody has to change how they work in order to use it.

Outcome:

The platform adapts to the fleet, not the other way around.

05 Camera diagnostics

Cameras get tampered with, badly mounted, or quietly stop recording — and every one of those is a blind spot nobody knows about. RideView watches for them and tells the fleet when something needs attention.

Outcome:

Every camera accounted for. Always.

Differentiation
video compression

3x the footage. Half the data bill.

Problem

Everyone uses the same off-the-shelf encoders and so everyone carries the same data bill. The only way to cut it is to record less or upload less. Either way, the footage you needed isn't there when you go looking.

Solution

We built our own compression from the ground up. Neural Network Video Compression runs on the camera itself. That means no extra hardware, no quality loss.

Outcome

A 128GB card holds 135 hours instead of 55. Cellular data drops by more than half. The footage is there when the claim arrives.

one device, all functions

Video, tracking and vehicle data, all from a single camera

Problem

Every extra device in the cab is another install, another SIM, another failure point. Most fleets end up with a dashcam, a tracker, and a separate ELD — none of them talking to each other.

Solution

RideView cameras run standalone — GPS, trips, driver behaviour, video, and AI from one device on one SIM. CANLink reads real vehicle data directly from the OBD port for fleets that need it.

Outcome

Simpler installs. Fewer support calls. One device to manage instead of three.

two-way push-to-talk

Your team can reach the driver, The driver can reach you

Problem

Video telematics is a one-way street — alerts to the driver, clips to the cloud, and no way for one person to actually speak to another. Fleets fill the gap with phones, which are unsafe at the wheel.

Solution

RideView turns the camera into the communication link. One press opens a direct line with no screen to navigate, no separate device required. The same button answers and ends the call.

Outcome

Fleet managers reach drivers in the moment it matters. Drivers can call for help without picking up a phone.

Uncertainty-aware AI

Uncertainty-aware detection + cloud re-verification = Far fewer false positives

Problem

Standard AI returns a confident answer whether or not it has grounds for one. Poor light or an unfamiliar cab is enough to make it confidently wrong. The usual fix is a human review team — slow, expensive, and impossible to scale.

Solution

RideView scores its own uncertainty and holds events back when it's guessing. Every surviving event is then re-checked in the cloud against driver history, road conditions, and context.

Outcome

Distraction precision climbs from 86% to 94%. Fewer false positives. Fewer wrongly accused drivers. A coaching queue your team actually trusts.

Gaze and blink detection

Distraction from gaze, Drowsiness from the blink itself

Problem

Most systems infer attention from head position — so a phone resting on the lap goes undetected entirely. And most systems wait for the eyes to close before flagging drowsiness, by which point microsleep has already started.

Solution

RideView reads gaze alongside pose, catching the phone-on-lap case other systems miss entirely. For drowsiness, it watches the blink itself — slower blinks and drooping lids appear before the eyes close.

Outcome

Distraction events caught earlier. Drowsiness flagged in time to prevent the incident, not after it.

Speed limits from the sign

Coachable for the fleet, Contestable by the driver

Problem

Nearly everyone pulls speed limits from map data — stale on plenty of roads, and blind to work zones, which is exactly where risk is highest. Coach a driver against a wrong limit and you lose the next ten coaching conversations too.

Solution

RideView reads the sign directly from the forward-facing camera feed. The limit used is the one visible in the footage.

Outcome

Coaching grounded in what the driver actually saw. Disputes settled with the same frame the system used. Evidence, not assertion.

AI triage and self-coaching

Coaching that actually happens

Problem

Raw video drowns a safety team. Static rules generate noise. Human review doesn't scale. Most systems narrow the list and stop there — so coaching quietly never happens.

Solution

RideView scores every event for severity and likelihood, cutting what reaches a person by 90 to 95%. Self-coaching then sends the event directly to the driver — improvement doesn't wait for a coaching session to be booked.

Outcome

Safety teams spend time coaching, not triaging. Drivers improve continuously, not just when someone has bandwidth.

Gen-AI report builder

Describe the report, get the report

Problem

No two fleets measure the same way — by depot, by contract, by shift, by customer. Canned templates never quite fit, and everyone ends up in a spreadsheet at month-end. A chatbot gives you an answer you can't schedule, can't share, and can't put in front of an insurer.

Solution

Describe the report you need in plain language. RideView produces a real report that is saved, scheduled, shareable, and repeatable.

Outcome

Custom reporting without the spreadsheet. Leadership gets the answer they need without raising a support request.

FAQ

RideView runs on 10+ camera models from three manufacturers — the same AI, the same features, and the same UX regardless of which camera you choose. Different cameras suit different fleet types, price points, and regional requirements. Whatever hardware your customers use, the backend and dashboard experience are identical.

Every event flagged by the on-camera AI goes back through cloud-based Visual Language Models before it reaches a person. The cloud has context the camera never had — longer footage, driver history, location, road type, and conditions. What passes through has been verified twice. Precision on distracted driving moves from 86% to 94%, drowsiness from 75% to 90%, tailgating from 91% to 99%.

Three paths, depending on how deep you want to go. Rebrand the fleet portal with SSO and launch in under three weeks. I-frame it into the dashboard your customers already use. Or build on the same APIs we build our own portals on — not a thin export layer, the full stack. Start shallow, go deeper when it suits you.

In a secure, multi-tenant cloud with data residency in every key market — data stays where the regulator expects it. LightMetrics is ISO 9001, ISO 22301, and ISO 27001 certified, and GDPR compliant.

The installer app makes the camera self-install — any technician in a fleet can fit one in under 15 minutes. Guided, step-by-step, with automatic calibration. No specialist engineers required. Partners get the source code to rebrand the app or drop components into an app they already have.
