Dreyev
Real-time computer vision driver monitoring for commercial auto insurers and fleet operators.
Overview
Dreyev is a driver safety technology company that uses computer vision and artificial intelligence to monitor driver attentiveness in real time and prevent distracted and drowsy driving. Founded in 2017 by Dr. Malgorzata (Maggie) Stys and Dr. Roberto Sicconi -- both veterans of the original IBM Watson team -- the company brings enterprise-grade AI to commercial vehicle safety.
The company's flagship product, the Walter Virtual Passenger System, acts as a virtual co-driver that continuously analyzes driver head pose, eye gaze, and eyelid closure to detect distraction and drowsiness, issuing real-time alerts before accidents occur. Dreyev serves commercial auto insurers and fleet operators seeking to reduce accident frequency and insurance losses through proactive driver monitoring.
Dreyev has partnered with Cover Whale Insurance Solutions to integrate its driver monitoring capabilities into commercial auto telematics programs, and has been featured at CES 2022 in collaboration with HERE Technologies for truck driver safety improvements.
