GPS for Truckers with Dash Cam

GPS for Truckers with Dash Camera

In the modern logistics and transportation industry, truck drivers face a host of challenges during long-haul trips: complex road conditions, the risk of fatigue driving, vehicle safety monitoring, and efficient route planning. To address these needs, YUWEI offers two dash cam models equipped with GPS tracking functionality—the V5 and V8-N. These devices support local video storage, automatically save footage and issue alerts in the event of an accident. Additionally, drivers can access real-time vehicle location data and optimize routes via the Y-Tool App, while AI-powered technology monitors safety risks such as distracted and drowsy driving.

Accurate Positioning for Hassle-Free Navigation

The V8-N comes with a built-in GPS+Beidou dual-mode positioning system, ensuring stable and precise vehicle location tracking in all environments. For truck drivers who frequently embark on long journeys, this feature not only enables accurate navigation but also records driving trajectories, facilitating fleet management and post-trip data retrieval. The integrated 4G LTE module supports multiple regional frequency bands, guaranteeing stable network connectivity across different countries and regions for real-time data transmission.

All-Round Monitoring to Eliminate Blind Spots

Due to their large size, trucks have significant blind spots that can easily lead to traffic accidents. The V8-N innovatively features four-channel video recording to tackle this issue:

①　Front-Road Camera: 8-megapixel high-definition shooting with a 137° wide-angle lens, providing full coverage of the area ahead of the vehicle.

②　Driver Behavior Monitoring Camera: 4-megapixel resolution with a 180° ultra-wide angle, effectively monitoring the driver’s status.

③　Side Blind Spot Monitoring: Supports connection to two external 720P cameras, dedicated to detecting pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles in blind spots on both sides of the truck.

This multi-angle monitoring system significantly enhances driving safety, especially when navigating urban roads or reversing, effectively preventing potential collision accidents.

Intelligent AI Alerts for Proactive Risk Prevention

The V8-N’s AI capabilities are its core highlight, delivering multiple layers of safety protection for truck drivers:

Driver Monitoring System (DMS)

It can identify the following behaviors in real time:

①　Fatigue driving (eye closure, yawning)

②　Distracted driving (e.g., mobile phone usage)

③　Smoking

④　Driver identity verification via facial recognition

Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS)

It provides the following alerts:

①　Lane Departure Warning

②　Forward Collision Warning

③　Distance Monitoring Warning

④　Pedestrian Collision Warning

These intelligent features issue timely alerts to drivers before dangers arise, significantly reducing accident rates—making the device particularly suitable for truck drivers engaged in long hours of highway driving.

Rugged Performance Designed for Commercial Vehicles

Taking into account the harsh operating conditions of trucks, the V8-N is specially optimized for durability:

①　Wide voltage operating range (9–36V): Compatible with truck electrical systems.

②　Broad operating temperature range (-20℃ to 70℃): Ensures stable operation in extremely cold polar regions or hot tropical areas.

③　IP30 protection rating: Resists dust ingress and slight moisture exposure.

④　Power-off protection function: Automatically saves critical video footage in case of unexpected power failure.

Easy Installation and Operation

With its compact design (112mm × 68mm × 33mm), the V8-N is easy to install. Through the dedicated Ytool Mobile App, drivers can effortlessly configure the device, view real-time video, and playback recorded footage. The built-in microphone and speaker support two-way voice communication, and even enable cellular calls via GSM/VoLTE.

Conclusion

The YUWEI V8-N is more than just a dash cam—it is a comprehensive safety assistant for truck drivers. Integrating GPS navigation, video recording, AI alerts, and vehicle monitoring into one device, it provides professional solutions tailored to the unique needs of truck driving. Whether for independent truck operators or large-scale logistics fleets, the V8-N delivers reliable safety assurance and convenient management experience, making every long-haul trip safer and more efficient.
