NASHVILLE, Tenn. — TMW Systems and PeopleNet unveiled their latest steps to unite their capabilities and build a more comprehensive, integrated technology platform for the transportation industry.

SAN ANTONIO — Upcoming regulations, the presidential election, a softer freight market and supply chain disruptions are contributing to “uncertain times” for the trucking industry. But those challenges also present opportunities for fleets that are better prepared than their competitors, McLeod Software’s CEO said.

SAN ANTONIO — Food transportation will become increasingly complex under the Food Safety Modernization Act, making it more important than ever for refrigerated carriers to closely track their freight and tightly control their operations, said Tom McLeod, CEO of McLeod Software.

While many technologies will likely play a role in shaping the future of transportation, two of the most important will be the emergence of automated driving systems and the continuing evolution of data analytics.

Startup firm NetraDyne Inc. has launched its initial technology offering for the transportation industry — a video-based safety platform that combines onboard cameras with artificial intelligence to provide a more complete view of driver performance.

Omnitracs has jumped into the burgeoning in-cab camera market with its own onboard video system called Critical Event Video.

To help drivers with the challenge of finding the most efficient route to make their deliveries, UPS has developed ORION, a program that calculates an optimized delivery order aimed at reducing miles traveled, transit time and fuel consumption.

Self-driving trucks, once regarded largely as the stuff of science fiction, appear to be on the verge of becoming a reality on the nation’s highways.
