Trusted DSRC technology for smart tachographs
A smart tachograph, a digital recording device mandated in commercial vehicles across Europe, enhances road safety and regulatory compliance by automatically recording data such as driving times, rest periods, speed, and specific events. Smart tachographs also support integration with fleet management systems, helping operators improve efficiency and ensure adherence to labor laws.
Each smart tachograph must include a legally mandated DSRC interface for wireless roadside enforcement. NORBIT is the market leader in DSRC enforcement modules and in-vehicle DSRC antennas, trusted by major OEMs and system integrators across Europe.
NORBIT offers two types of solutions for the tachograph application:
- The DSRC-CAN module is the right choice for interfacing an external DSRC function to the smart tachograph using the standardized CAN-bus protocol.
- NORBIT’s patented Detached Antenna solution provides cost savings in high-volume mass production by integration of DSRC functionality inside the smart tachograph.
