One AI fleet camera, one platform, one login

  • Sees the road and the driver: one AI dash cam runs road-view ADAS and in-cab driver monitoring on the same unit.
  • Warns in the cab before the crash: on-device AI fires an instant in-cab alert the moment a lapse appears, so the driver self-corrects.
  • Two units cover the whole fleet: Crystal Vision 2-CH for light commercials, Crystal Vision MDVR 4 to 8 channel for trucks, buses, waste and mining.
  • Keeps working off the grid: 4G upload plus GPS, with offline buffering that captures the event where coverage drops then syncs.
  • Proof in seconds, not arguments: every event is risk-classified and stored in one Australian-hosted Crystal evidence library for claims and CoR audits.
  • TCA Type-Approved platform: cameras feed the same Crystal system as your tracking, held under ISO/IEC 27001 controls.

AI dash cam with driver monitoring

An AI dash cam analyses what it sees in real time, not only stores it. Ctrack Crystal Vision is the AI dashcam layer of the one Crystal platform: a dual-channel AI unit carrying two lenses, with a built-in AI processor running the AI models in the cab through every ignition-on shift. Against a standard dash cam, that is the difference between footage and prevention. It is the safety end of a wider telematics solution, delivering real-time driver safety alerts rather than footage that is rarely reviewed.

The road-view dash lens is the ADAS half. It reads the traffic ahead for rear-end risk, lane departure, tailgating and pedestrians. The in-cab AI lens is the DMS half (driver monitoring). It reads the person behind the wheel for drowsiness, distraction, phone use, smoking and a missing seatbelt. Both run at once, so this AI dash cam sees the road and the cab together, lifting fleet safety from one unit.

Because the AI runs locally rather than in the cloud, the warning reaches the cab in real time and keeps working even where mobile coverage drops. This is the hardware behind our driver monitoring and fleet dash cam work, without repeating them.

Fleet camera device hardware and AI processing

This is commercial in-cab camera hardware engineered for fleet operating conditions, not a consumer windscreen device. Every Crystal Vision dash camera pairs the same AI technology with rugged optics. One unit captures, reads and uploads, and every one of your fleet vehicles reports to the same Crystal platform. When you need proof of an event, the footage is already there.

  • 1080p HD capture with wide dynamic range on the road-view lens for glare and low light
  • Infrared night vision on the in-cab lens for clear footage after dark
  • On-board AI that reads and alerts in the cab, with no cloud round-trip
  • Cellular upload, so each clip is location- and speed-stamped
  • Offline buffering that keeps capturing where coverage drops, then syncs on return
  • Event-based capture from the G-sensor: harsh braking, acceleration, cornering or speed
  • Tamper and obstruction alerts if a lens is covered or moved
  • Rugged build for harsh Australian conditions, from Outback heat to alpine cold

Forward-facing fleet camera: ADAS road risk

The road-view lens uses on-board AI to detect risk on the traffic ahead. Around 63.5% of serious truck crashes trace to human factors such as inattention, inappropriate speed and following distance (NTI/NTARC), the exact behaviours a road-view fleet dash cam is built to catch. We frame this as an industry benchmark, not a Ctrack result.

Collision warning ahead

Collision warning measures the closing distance to the vehicle ahead and warns the driver before a rear-end becomes unavoidable.

Lane Departure and Headway

Lane Departure Warning flags drift out of lane, and Headway Monitoring alerts on tailgating before the gap gets dangerous.

Blind-spot and pedestrian

Blind-Spot warnings and pedestrian or cyclist proximity alerts protect vulnerable road users, reducing the low-speed strikes that hurt people around the vehicle.

For the road-safety outcomes behind these alerts, see our ADAS solution.

Driver monitoring camera: in-cab fatigue and distraction

The in-cab lens is the tiredness detection camera. Drowsiness contributes to about 20% of all heavy-vehicle accidents in Australia (NHVR), and inattention and distraction show up in two of every five human-error losses (NTARC). These industry figures frame why scoring driving behaviour matters across a fleet of vehicles, where the AI lifts safety and efficiency together. Coaching the repeat behaviour with real video footage beats a lecture, not Ctrack accuracy specs.

  • Drowsiness and microsleeps: prolonged eye closure, head pose and yawning trigger an instant in-cab alert so the driver self-corrects.
  • Distraction and phone use: eyes off the road or a phone in hand are flagged in the moment.
  • No seatbelt and smoking: policy breaches are detected and logged for coaching, not guessed at.

This is the in-cab unit behind our driver monitoring work, paired with the road-view alerts above.

AI dash cam event workflow to Australian-hosted evidence

A 4G dash cam fleet rollout only delivers measurable value if the proof lands where you can use it. Here is how the AI algorithms move a Crystal Vision event from the cab to a searchable evidence library, lifting fleet efficiency across the entire fleet.

1

The AI-powered dash cam detects in the cab

Computer vision reads the cab and the road every shift. The moment it spots tiredness, distraction or a road risk, it fires an audio and visual alert in the cab, with no signal needed.

2

Only the event uploads over the network

The unit can record footage locally all the time, but uploads only the triggered clip alongside its location and speed data. If coverage drops, the clip buffers locally and syncs automatically when the signal returns. Routine driving is never stored, so the evidence you keep is exactly what defends insurance claims.

3

It lands risk-classified on one platform

Each clip arrives location-, speed- and time-stamped, immutable and auto-classified High, Medium or Low risk, on the same fleet management platform as your tracking. The camera and tracker share one evidence library, so footage for later review is always one search away.

AI fleet cameras: 2-CH or MDVR selection

Crystal Vision ships as two fleet camera families on one platform, so a mixed fleet of utes through to B-doubles runs from a single login. Drowsiness alone contributes to 34.8% of heavy-vehicle driver fatalities (NTARC), which is why heavy vehicles in a modern fleet need the wider camera coverage of the MDVR. This is fleet AI that scales across your fleet and across fleet operations, drawing vehicle power from the ignition feed rather than one unit at a time.

Crystal Vision 2-CH

A dual-channel dash cam fleet unit: one road-view lens and one in-cab lens. This is the two-channel dash cam fleet option for utes, vans and light commercials that need ADAS plus DMS in one tidy install.

  • Road-view ADAS + in-cab DMS
  • Light commercial vehicles
  • Cellular upload, GPS tracking, offline buffering

Crystal Vision MDVR

A 4 to 8 channel truck camera system that adds side and rear cameras plus two-way talkback into the cab. Built for heavy vehicles in bus and coach, waste management and mining.

  • 4 to 8 channels, side and rear coverage
  • Two-way talkback for welfare checks
  • Heavy vehicle, bus, waste, mining

AI dash cam questions from fleet buyers

The commercial dash cam questions Australian fleet managers ask us most before they roll out.

A normal dash cam only records. Crystal Vision runs on-board AI that reads the driver and the road in real time, then fires an in-cab alert the moment it detects drowsiness, distraction, a phone in hand, no seatbelt, or a road risk like a rear-end or lane departure. The footage is the backup. The point is the warning the driver gets before a lapse becomes a crash. Every event lands risk-classified on the same Crystal platform as your tracking and compliance, not in a separate camera app.

The in-cab lens (DMS) detects drowsiness and microsleeps, distraction and eyes-off-road, phone use, smoking, no seatbelt, and a covered or obstructed lens. The road-view lens (ADAS) detects collision risk ahead, lane departure, headway and tailgating, blind-spot intrusion, and pedestrian or cyclist proximity. The MDVR adds side and rear channels for wider coverage on heavy vehicles.

Crystal Vision 2-CH is a dual-channel unit, one road-view lens and one in-cab lens, for utes, vans and light commercials. Crystal Vision MDVR is a 4 to 8 channel system for trucks, buses, coaches, waste and mining, where you also need side and rear cameras and two-way talkback into the cab. Both feed the same Australian-hosted Crystal evidence library, so a mixed fleet runs from one login.

Capture is event-based. The unit records locally while the ignition is on, but it only uploads a clip when the AI or the G-sensor detects a real event such as harsh braking, a speed event, or a drowsiness or distraction lapse. Routine driving is never stored or reviewed, which is why drivers accept it as protection rather than surveillance.

Yes. The AI runs on the device, not in the cloud, so detection and in-cab alerting keep working with no mobile coverage at all. Offline buffering keeps capturing the event locally where coverage drops, then syncs it automatically once the vehicle is back in mobile range, so you do not lose the evidence from a remote-road incident.

Every clip uploads to a single Australian-hosted Crystal evidence library held under ISO/IEC 27001 information security controls. Each event is GPS-, speed- and time-stamped, immutable, searchable, and auto-classified High, Medium or Low risk. You view, search and export clips through the Crystal portal. Verify the current default retention period with your Ctrack consultant before relying on it.

The Crystal platform is TCA Type-Approved and Ctrack is ISO/IEC 27001 certified as a company. The cameras are commercial-grade hardware built for Australian conditions, with infrared night vision on the in-cab lens and wide dynamic range on the road-view lens for glare and low light.
