Distraction Detection Overview
Zubie's AI-powered dashcam is equipped with a sophisticated distraction detection algorithm. This technology can identify and analyze driver behavior to detect instances of distraction, including cellphone use, eating, drinking, smoking and tired driving.
Zubie dashcams are able to detect motions that look similar to certain types of distracted driving behaviors. However, the AI cannot definitively distinguish between actual distracted driving and something that just looks similar. Customers should always watch the video to verify a distraction before taking corrective action with drivers.
Zubie's platform counts a distracted driving event when the vehicle is in motion, and the distracted behavior is detected for 60 seconds. If the same behavior lasts for multiple minutes, you will see multiple distracted driving events.
In-vehicle device alerts
Zubie's dashcam can alert the driver when distraction detected. We are able to turn on a visual LED alert as well as audio "beeps" to notify the driver that a distraction was detected. Please contact support if you would like us to enable these device alerts for your fleet.
Zubie App Distracted Driving Alert Preferences
You can opt in to receive in-app notifications and email notifications of each type of distracted driving. Just go to your Zubie user profile, and access the Distracted Driving subsection of the Driver Performance Alerts. You can enable all or just some types of distracted driving alerts.
Please note: Zubie will track all types of distracted driving detected by your dashcam. This preference determines which types of alerts you want to receive when a distraction is detected.
Driver Insights and Reports
Zubie's dashcam, with AI capabilities, provides detailed driver insights and reports. Users can access analytics that highlight instances of distracted driving, empowering them to address specific areas of concern and implement corrective measures.
