What makes our Smart 4G Dash Cam so smart? Our camera systems are powered by Android, ensuring compatibility with future updates and seamless integration with the Crystal Ball app. This means you can keep your fleet technology ahead of the curve.
SmartCam is our commercial 4G dash cam system that provides HD video recording quality. Dash Cam event footage is sent to the cloud in real time. It also supports remote footage download on demand.
The fleet dash cam doesn’t just monitor driver safety and performance; it helps improve it. By scoring driver behaviour based on five KPIs (speeding, acceleration, cornering, braking, and idling), the system calculates driver scores, reports, and league tables for easy analysis.
Know who is driving each vehicle at all times. Driver identification enables drivers to log in with their unique username and pin code to identify themselves and verify business and private mileage accordingly.
SmartCam seamlessly integrates with FleetTracker, a GPS vehicle tracking system for cars, vans, HGVs, trucks, and motorcycles. Trusted by countless SMEs and local governments across the UK, FleetTracker enhances your fleet management capabilities with real-time location tracking and more.
Stay ahead of maintenance with our digital checklists. Perform daily, weekly, or monthly inspections across your fleet using the Driver App, ensuring your vehicles remain safe and compliant at all times.
Our commercial 4G dash cam system offers superior video quality. Event footage is instantly uploaded to the cloud and available for on-demand remote download, ensuring video evidence is always at your fingertips. It’s also saved on the SD card, giving you flexible access to the footage you need.
Opt for dual-facing dash cams to get a complete picture of what’s happening on the road. In the case of accidents, driver-facing dash cams allow comprehensive incident analysis and liability determination. They can also help prevent accidents due to unsafe driving thanks to continuous recording, encouraging drivers to avoid distracted driving and other dangerous driving habits.
I decided to transfer our fleet over to CB and it's one of the best decisions I have ever made. Their team are superb to deal with, in the current climate with vehicle utilisation being so high I was apprehensive about the task of getting everything switched over, but the team have made this as easy and flexible as possible. The technology they offer is far superior to our previous provider. If you are considering changing your provider, I would certainly recommend speaking to the team at Crystal Ball.
With a fleet of 196 our previous systems did not provide enough information for what we needed. The system has much out performed anything we have had previously. Dash cams, Driver ID and Electronic vehicle checks have enhanced Fleet KPI'S. Control over driver behaviours has reduced wear and tear on vehicles and speeding issues. We now have safer driving, less public complaints and fewer accidents.
We have used the tracker system for 2 years now, recently we upgraded to the latest dual dash camera's, this will allow us to protect our staff and fleet, over the past 2 years I have found that the team have supported our service with their knowledge of the system and are always willing to help when called upon, we have always received an excellent service and would highly recommend other Fleet Managers to purchase the Crystal Ball System.

Yes, with Crystal ball’s Smart 4G truck, HGV, car, and van dash cam the integrated accelerometer will detect significant changes in G-force to generate video events. Such events are categorised into Medium or High Severity, dependent on the level of G-force detected. SmartCam customers can also review all footage captured on their business dash cams from the internal SD card outside of automated events.

While SmartCam is not designed to be used for surveillance when the vehicle is parked, dash cams can certainly help with vehicle security. In fact, the dash cam can serve as a valuable security tool for the vans, cars, HGVs, and trucks in your fleet.

Moreover, real-time video access, a standout feature of our system, allows for immediate response to road incidents.
The benefits of installing fleet dash cam solutions go beyond responding to problems on the road; they can help you prevent accidents in the first place. By recording drivers’ behaviour and increasing a sense of personal accountability, a professionally installed dash cam encourages drivers to be cautious.

You can even use previously collected video footage in driver coaching and training!
Plus, SmartCam is not just a dash cam. Once you’ve connected cameras in your vehicles to GPS tracking systems, vehicle defect reporting, and driver performance monitoring, fleet managers can enjoy total visibility over the entire fleet. It’s a holistic approach to fleet management that can help you boost efficiency across the business!
