Advancing technology is a key differentiator when it comes to informed decision-making in trucking transportation as artificial Intelligence and other innovations evolve the shipping and logistics industry.
Artificial intelligence employing a combination of intelligent monitoring, G-force sensors and dual-facing video can help train new truck drivers to avoid risky behaviors.
High Definition maps can help autonomous trucks better understand the road ahead, allowing self-driving rigs to anticipate, navigate and/or avoid tricky situations. But these benefits only accrue if HD maps have the right data and the right tools to stay up-to-date.
Cloud-based software and data enables fleets to do more with less and sets truck drivers up for success by providing them with the tools to more effectively manage their routes.
The driver shortage ranked No. 1 yet again in the American Transportation Research Institute’s 2020 survey of the most critical issues facing the trucking industry.
Electric trucks fit the needs of U.S. Postal Service delivery routes and might make the most financial sense because of greater reliability and lower cost of operation.
