1. Introduction
Micronet SmartCAM Platform Overview
In today’s commercial Telematics industry there is a growing demand for onboard devices that not only
send sensor data from the vehicle and driver environment for backend processing, but devices that also
analyze, detect, and notify the driver in real-time of any potential safety risks, operational errors, and
protocol violations. Events such as near-collision, tailgating, unsafe lane departures, hard
braking/cornering/accelerating, stop sign violations, speeding, distracted driving, driver fatigue, and
more comprise a rich dataset that is used by fleet managers to measure their drivers’ skills and
performance. It is also used to deploy training and education programs that result in improved fleet
safety, reduced insurance claims and premiums, higher up-time, and lower maintenance costs.
The Micronet SmartCAM™ enables fleet managers to address all these safety events not only through
conventional Telematic sensors such as GPS, 3D accelerometer, I/O, and CANbus, but also by providing
the ‘Full Picture’ through a rich set of real-time, onboard video analytics and AI capabilities enabled by a
dual automotive-grade camera for road and in-cabin monitoring all packaged into a single device. This
saves costly installations of separate ELD device installations for Telematics, ADAS, and DashCams. It
also saves upload data due to the local video analytics processing done on the device and its powerful
computing platform.
With the ability to run multiple applications simultaneously, the Micronet SmartCAM™ allows Telematics
Service Providers and System Integrators to extend their offering beyond their applications and provide
customers with advanced 3rd party mobility and video analytics applications.
In the Vehicle
Placed on the vehicle windshield, the Micronet SmartCAM™ functions as a high-end camera and onboard
Telematics computer. With integrated GPS, rear and front cameras, cellular communications, various
sensors, and support for a variety of vehicle-bus and peripheral interfaces, the Micronet SmartCAM™
enables a host of Fleet Management and Video Analytics solutions such as: ADAS, Driver Fatigue,
ELD/HOS, fleet tracking, driver behavior, real-time driver coaching and fuel management, remote
diagnostics, DVIR, backend communications, and much more.
The Micronet SmartCAM’s two cameras, together with its powerful processor and memory, allows it to
run advanced algorithms required for video analysis applications like tailgate monitoring, unsafe lane
departures, collision warnings, speed limit and stop sign detection, driver fatigue, distracted drivers,
driver ID, and passenger counting.

Rev. 1 Micronet SmartCAM™ - Hardware Guide 8 / 47
With a rich set of wireless and wired interfaces –Wi-Fi hotspot, BT tethering and BLE, Bluetooth audio,
NFC, Wi-Fi Direct, multiple CAN channels (including open/customizable CAN libraries), and multiple I/Os
–the Micronet SmartCAM™ can function as an in-cabin hub to easily connect with other devices,
sensors, and accessories. Driver notification features such as system status LEDs, warning indicators,
internal speakers, and microphone are also provided for device control and driver alerting purposes.
The Micronet SmartCAM™ lets drivers remain safe, effective, and efficient with on-the-go connectivity –
anytime and anywhere –using cellular communication and Wi-Fi. Its durable design withstands shocks
and a range of temperatures, allowing drivers to operate freely in any environment. Installed on the
windshield, the Micronet SmartCAM™ has a perfect view of the road and the cabin.
The Micronet SmartCAM™ is a superior and cost-effective solution for Video Telematics.
Micronet SmartCAM Models
Micronet has implemented the SmartCAM™ platform in three product variants: The Basic Model, an
Intermediate Model, and Enhanced Model. These models include powerful computing, extended
memory, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, and more. In addition, each model supports a set of additional
features:
•Basic Model –provides support for 2 cameras, a QC SDM450 chipset (2GB/16GB memory), and
additional storage for DVR recording. This model is described in more detail in the Basic Model.
•Intermediate Model –In addition to the Basic Model, the Intermediate Model provides 4G LTE.
•Enhanced Model - provides basic + enhanced key features set, described in Enhanced Model
list below.
The following Table 1 distinguishes each model for their specific components:

Compatibility with Micronet SmartX Products
The Micronet SmartCAM™ is based on the same hardware and software platform as the Micronet
SmartHub, SmarTab, and Tab 8 –Micronet’s next-generation Android On-Board-Computer. Telematics
Service Providers who develop applications for Micronet’s SmartX series products can easily adjust and
run those apps on the Micronet SmartCAM™ for customers who also need that as part of their solution.
Shorter Development Cycles
Powered by an open Android platform, the Micronet SmartCAM™ platform offers a comprehensive
development environment for independent application programming and system integration. Because of
the vast ecosystem of Android development tools and software frameworks, and a flourishing
community of developers, working with Android devices has rapid development and integration cycles.
Lower Total Cost of Ownership
Designed to operate in harsh automotive field environments, the Micronet SmartCAM™ lowers the total
cost of ownership by withstanding shocks, vibrations, and extreme temperatures
