Qualcomm Enterprise Services has unveiled its Exact Fuel application that monitors and transmits fuel level information on the vehicle data bus directly to fleet managers. This capability, according to the company, identifies discrepancies in fuel levels that may indicate theft, as well as helps fleets make timelier and more informed fuel stop decisions that reduce out-of-route miles.
Initially available for fleets using Qualcomm’s Mobile Computing Platform (MCP) 110 and 200, the Exact Fuel application transmits fuel level, time and location data regularly. Qualcomm is also exploring future Exact Fuel enhancements that will help fleets compare fuel purchases with actual fueling levels. Companies can deploy the current application to individual vehicles or fleet-wide through a subscription-based model.
