SAFETY IN MOTION
Screen blanking made easy, safe & legally compliant. The Blank-it screen blanking solution provides an easy, safe and legally compliant way of managing in-vehicle computer displays. Blank-it significantly reduces the risks associated with driver distraction by restricting driver access to the screen when the vehicle is in motion.
Blank-it is an easy to install, vehicle independent, self-contained safety solution - a combination of multi-sensor hardware and intelligent software that allows nominated apps to be viewed while the vehicle is in motion. Solution partners such as Havis and Xplore Technologies offer an integrated, tamper-proof solution.
Blank-it helps ensure that vehicles comply with the ever increasing levels of ‘driver distraction’ legislation and improves employee health and safety.
Improves safety & saves lives. Blank-it minimizes the risks associated with distracted driving caused by a driver facing computer screen.
Corporate responsibility.
The workforce is becoming more mobile with technology being available in vehicles. To ensure best practice for both road going vehicles and forklifts Blank-it ensures the safest possible use of technology while driving.

Optimize your reverse camera with View-it. View-it is a complementary app designed to work seamlessly with the rugged View-it video capture hardware. View-it allows a reverse camera feed to be relayed direct to an in-vehicle computer, avoiding the need for separate display screens. As soon as the vehicle is put in reverse the image from the reverse camera is instantly displayed on the screen.
When reverse is disengaged, the display reverts to its previous state, freeing up the screen for normal use.
