Connected Car: Today, the DriveSync platform continues to
deliver and build-out new experiences for a growing list of core
connected car services that include usage-based insurance, driver
coaching, vehicle maintenance, integrated roadside assistance,
green driving reports, data analytics, road-usage charging, fleet
management and more. To encourage safer, smarter and greener
driving behavior, DriveSync provides driver coaching tips, alerts
and notifications in-car or on smartphones, with the capability to
also extend to the latest wearable technologies.
Connected Home: The DriveSync platform harnesses
technologies available today to deliver the latest in home
telematics services. Leveraging context, proximity detection and
in-home smart gadgets where available, DriveSync can analyze data
about home temperature, occupancy, water leak status, carbon
monoxide and smoke detector statuses, home alarm systems and door
entry to provide individuals with piece of mind through home
monitoring services. This same information can also be provided for
third-party opt-in programs – for example, home insurers can offer
awards and discounts to owners that demonstrate regular occupancy
and care.
Connected Lifestyle: The DriveSync platform has the
capability to offer individuals incentives for healthy behaviors
and smart lifestyle choices. Using innovative health telematics,
the DriveSync platform delivers a wellness score to individuals by
analyzing a number of behaviors that can include steps walked per
day, average daily gym visits, and average hours of sleep, to list
a few examples. In turn, health conscious users can submit their
wellness score to receive rewards and discounts for third-party
opt-in programs, including discounts on health and life insurance
premiums.
To learn how the DriveSync platform delivers on the promise of
the Connected Life, IMS is demonstrating these capabilities at the
