Commercial vehicle safety and security specialists, Vision Techniques, have given one of their products a revamp.

The VT Ident Plus System, one of the company’s best-selling products, has been given a major upgrade, offering even more benefits to customers.

The system is designed to prevent thefts, accidents and unauthorised vehicle use by ensuring only trained and authorised operators can start and operate vehicles and/or equipment, with built in anti-rollaway protection.

The intelligent driver and vehicle authorisation system already came with a variety of benefits including improved operational efficiency, fuel savings and complete controlled access.

However the new system has been upgraded to now offer even more benefits. These include flexible authentication options including passive RFID tags, cards, pin codes as well as integrated telematics for live vehicle tracking via VT Connect.

This means the product can now track driver activity and behaviour, as well as full visibility of driver usage, access attempts and events.

As well as benefitting from all the product upgrades, customers will also get the first year data subscription included in the cost of the system.

Mikaeel Koornhof, Technical Specialist at Vision Techniques, shares what inspired the upgrade.

He said: “The latest evolution of VT Ident Plus reflects the changing needs of modern fleets.

“Customers are looking for more than access control, they want visibility, accountability, and data they can act on.

“By integrating telematics, expanded authentication methods, and VT Connect reporting, we’ve enhanced safety, reduced risk, and given fleet operators greater control over how their vehicles are used.

“The system now supports multiple driver authentication options, detailed driver and vehicle activity logging, live tracking, and configurable vehicle-specific authorisation, while built-in failsafe’s such as park brake monitoring further strengthen on-site and road safety.”
