TGP Gets a New Mobile Computing Platform Installed
As a driver who’s covered almost 2 million miles using nothing but the sun, moon and stars to navigate in Australia, having the latest mobile computing platform from Qualcomm is quite a revelation. The MCP200 (MCP stands for mobile computing platform) transforms the cab into a mobile operations center and it’s definitely a system no driver should be without in America.
The MCP200 offers multi-mode communications (terrestrial and Wi-Fi) as its standard with satellite as an option, automated satellite GPS vehicle positioning, electronic log books, two-way information delivery for dispatch, weather & traffic information, navigation, color touch screen display, vehicle performance monitoring, trailer monitoring, tamper-detection alerts, interactive video training, in-cab document scanning for proof of delivery etc & in-cab internet access.
No more getting lost for The Grumpy Pete (like he did recently on the Cross Island Parkway on Long Island)!
