One of the great allies of Road Cargo Transport (TRC) in the pursuit of a more efficient sector, safe and sustainable is the embedded technology. In general terms, they are a kind of device within a larger equipment, as in the case, the truck. These items collect data, make decisions and control specific functions, making it smarter and more efficient
The telemetry, for example, fits this definition. It allows real-time monitoring of vehicles, providing data on speed, fuel consumption, driver's location and behavior. This technology enables route optimization, the reduction of operational costs and the increase in road safety
Besides telemetry, other technologies such as fleet management systems (TMS), cargo tracking, artificial intelligence and the internet of things (IoT) are also being widely adopted in the sector. These tools provide greater control over operations, process optimization, reduction of losses and increase in logistical efficiency
According to data from NTC&Logística, 78% of road freight transport companies in Brazil already use some form of onboard technology in their operations. The main motivators for the adoption of these advancements are cost reduction, the increase in security and the improvement of efficiency. The report from the global consultancy Frost & Sullivan predicted that the market for embedded technologies for road freight transport in Brazil should grow at an average annual rate of 15% until 2025. The main drivers of this growth were the demand for greater efficiency and security in cargo transportation, as well as the increasing supply of innovative technological solutions
Thinking about this increasingly evident need in the life of the transporter, a Gobrax, company specialized in fleet technology, developed a product that, in addition to promoting autonomy for drivers, has a direct impact on fuel economy and fleet operations optimization, uniting innovation and new practices. "Our solution is capable of reducing fuel consumption by 4% to 8%", what can generate a monthly savings of up to R$1.500 per vehicle, for fleets that travel more than 8."000 km per month," explains the company's CEO, Duani Reis.
Gobrax technology offers a range of tools and resources that can assist professional truck drivers in various ways, positively impacting your daily life and your results. With consumption monitoring and instant feedback, it is possible to drive more efficiently and save fuel. Furthermore, risk alerts and real-time monitoring increase safety on the roads, while optimized routes and traffic information facilitate travel planning
With all these tools, it empowers drivers to drive more efficiently, safe and economical, in addition to facilitating the planning of your trips and the maintenance of your vehicles.
According to the company's CEO, Gobrax is committed to providing solutions that put the driver at the center of the operation. "We believe it is possible to transform road transport", making it more efficient, safe and sustainable. That's why, we work daily to ensure that this result reaches professional drivers, that are fundamental for Road Transport, concludes Kings
