ICC partners with Novatel Wireless for advanced telematics solution

The firm has adopted specialised cellular solutions from Novatel Wireless, a leading provider of wireless solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT).

As a result, In-Car Cleverness can now support all five ‘plug and play’ engine OBD protocols (on-board diagnostics), while offering features for telematics applications, such as highly-sensitive dual accelerometers, advanced diagnostics, pin-point GPS and location technology, programmable platforms, and additional cellular services.

The new solution will be deployed in the UK in May 2015 and will be commercially available throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) for commercial and consumer telematics markets, where growth is expected to increase considerably.

"Jointly, Novatel Wireless and In-Car Cleverness now offer one of the most advanced telematics solution for fleets, leasing companies, dealers and usage-based insurers, in an intuitive and easy-to-use package," said Martin Bramwell, managing director of In-Car Cleverness.

"With Novatel, we can now offer unrivalled pinpoint vehicle tracking, precision accident detection and accurate driver behaviour profiling which gives our offering the competitive edge we were looking for."
