Seeing Machines to provide driver distraction tech for Shell fleet

Seeing Machines said it had signed an agreement with oil giant Shell to supply its driver distraction and fatigue technology.

Shell’s truck fleet covers 500m kilometres a year globally and the ‘Guardian’ system will be installed where “fatigue and distracted driving are considered to be a safety risk”, Seeing Machines said on Monday.

“Given the size of Shell's global footprint the deployment of Guardian is expected to begin in 2021 but could take several years to fully implement,' it added.
