Delphi offers security functions

Delphi Corp. introduced TruckSecure, an on-board computer that fits in a standard-size radio package and features interactive speech technology, connectivity, information-on-demand, enhanced entertainment and, now, highly effective vehicle security capabilities. The system is based on Delphi’s Truck Productivity Computer and uses third-party software to power the security functions.

TruckSecure functions include password protected access to truck operation; GPS satellite and cellular technologies to monitor the truck’s location; specialized software that creates boundaries around sensitive locations and recognizes when the truck crosses those parameters; and a system that slowly decelerates the truck to a complete stop if it enters the restricted area. TruckSecure can help identify and authorize drivers, track and guide vehicles, and even shut down a vehicle if it is driven into a prohibited area or if key components are tampered with or destroyed.
