Radio Engineering Industries Inc. (REI) introduced two new wireless fleet software add-ons for REI’s mobile video surveillance system: A.R.M.O.R-Auto Pilot and A.R.M.O.R.-Diagnostics. The server-based software components can be used independently or combined for a complete safety solution.  

A.R.M.O.R-Auto Pilot manages wireless downloading, reporting and automated notification of video events you define, as well as video download requests made while the vehicle is off or in the lot. The software tool allows a user to determine which events are reported plus their urgency, while viewing the events in an easy-to-navigate environment. A.R.M.O.R-Auto Pilot can be used over the web or within your current IT infrastructure.

A.R.M.O.R-Diagnostics is a vehicle, DVR and camera diagnostics software tool that allows proactive monitoring of your fleet’s health status. More importantly, with the J1939 CAN-BUS option, you can monitor your vehicle’s health, including excessive idling through RPM detection, fuel usage, mechanical issues, check engine lights, tire and oil pressure and historical maintenance records. Alerts can be sent via text to your phone or to an email address.

By combining A.R.M.O.R-Auto Pilot and A.R.M.O.R-Diagnostics into your existing REI mobile video surveillance system, you’re gaining a comprehensive package with improved fleet management that saves you time and money.
