Extending Onboard Optical Imaging Technology to Customers Arms Carriers with Tools to Combat Detention, Resolve Claims and Ensure Trailer Readiness

Spireon, the vehicle intelligence company, unveiled the next phase in the evolution of its proprietary IntelliScan cargo sensing technology with the release of Image Capture and Retrieval. The introduction of Image and Capture Retrieval builds upon Spireon’s Intelligent Trailer Management (ITM) smart trailer platform to provide actionable intelligence so carriers can maximize the ROI of their trailer assets. The new technology will be demonstrated at the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) Truckload 2020 Conference.

Launched in 2018, IntelliScan raises the bar with advanced detection methods, leveraging a proprietary combination of optical imaging and laser time of flight sensing to achieve 99.9% accuracy in cargo detection. With IntelliScan, the FleetLocate trailer management solution reliably and accurately reads the entire 53′ trailer in extreme environmental conditions, and with varied and irregular load types such as “soft” cargo like carpet or paper. Now, the artificial intelligence and machine learning that detects cargo captures what it sees, arming carriers with information needed to combat detention and ensure trailer readiness.

“How many times have you wished you had eyes inside your trailer when you’re trying to validate a detention bill? How many times have you sent a driver for a trailer only to find it’s still loaded,” asked Roni Taylor, senior vice president of strategy and business development at Spireon. “With IntelliScan, not only will you know with unprecedented accuracy when a trailer is loaded or empty, now you can see it, save it and share it.”

The ability to capture images from inside trailers will revolutionize the way carriers manage drivers, trailers and business relationships. With IntelliScan Image Capture and Retrieval, carriers can:

Keep drivers driving by ensuring a trailer is empty before scheduling pickup
Increase detention b****** accuracy and improve shipper practices with proof of load/unload
Improve worker safety and lower liability by detecting cargo load shift before doors open
Minimize cargo damage and increase efficiency by detecting improper loading
Resolve claims confidently with timestamped images that prove or disprove cargo/trailer damage
Recover stolen cargo and aid in prosecution with timestamped documentation

“They say a picture is worth a thousand words; in the transportation industry, it’s worth countless dollars,” said Jim AuBuchon, president and CEO at Premier Trailer Leasing. “Image Capture and Retrieval is a game changer for us and our leasing customers.”
