Driver identification: Vehicle fleet management
Approximately 50% of companies are projected to equip their vehicle fleets with on-board telematics systems. This adoption aims to enhance driver safety, reduce management costs, and improve overall operating efficiency. Meanwhile, in adherence to Swedish tax regulations, all cars used in a work environment needs to have a driving journal. A detailed log over every trip and information about who was driving. In response to these challenges, Infobric entrusted to ELA Innovation to automate driver identification. To achieve this, 2000 Blue LITE ID Bluetooth beacons were deployed, enabling drivers to connect systematically and automatically to vehicles.
The automatic drive ID solution ensures that we have a driver assigned to every trip and removes both the risk and the work related to manual solutions.

Technical Operation
From a technical point of view, the driver identification solution is based on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology with ELA Innovation’s Blue LITE ID beacons capable of being detected by Teltonika GNSS trackers. The seamless integration of these devices is achieved through the configuration process initiated by the driver, scanning the QR-code label using the Infobric Fleet mobile application. Then the user is able to create an account and be given access to the system. The user will be designated as the driver for every journey they undertake, as long as the ELA Innovation Blue LITE ID is carried along. Additionally, choosing between private and business modes is easily accomplished through the Infobric Fleet application.
