SAN DIEGO (June 24, 2025) — Samsara Inc. unveiled more than a dozen artificial intelligence (AI)-powered solutions for physical operations. Fueled by Samsara’s open platform, these solutions empower organizations to operate smarter — and alter the industry’s approach to the safety of frontline teams. These new solutions include AI-powered safety tools, a new connected wearable, advanced routing and navigation capabilities, and enhanced maintenance tools.
AI Safety Intelligence: Reward Drivers, Spot Risk & Prevent Incidents in Real Time
Driving ranks among the top 10 most dangerous jobs in the U.S. Over the past decade, there has been a 49% increase in fatal crashes, coupled with a 40% increase in associated insurance premiums. Samsara offers advanced technology to help detect risky driving events, such as phone use or speeding; now, several new AI-fueled features have been added to improve fleet safety and reward safe driving:
- AI Multicam — Drivers can now add up to four additional HD cameras, providing a 360-degree view to reduce blind spots, all accessible through an in-cab monitor. In addition, the AI Multicam actively notifies drivers in real-time of hazards, such as pedestrians and cyclists. Whether using a Samsara camera or a third-party device, administrators can retrieve historic video footage and corresponding audio to help quickly resolve incidents.
- Weather Intelligence — Administrators can now overlay real-time weather data pulled from the National Weather Service onto the existing dashboards to view and alert workers of imminent threats such as fire risks, heavy rain and more.
- Safety Coaching for Lean Teams — A new set of customizable features help administrators with lean safety teams scale driver coaching and recognition with AI and automation. AI analyzes hundreds of risky driving events — considering factors like severity, frequency, road conditions, and total drive time — and automatically sends low-risk behaviors to drivers for self-coaching and escalates higher-risk events to managers. Further, AI provides insight into big picture behavioral trends across drivers and trips, so managers can coach based on driving patterns, not just isolated incidents.
- Revamped Driver App — The Samsara app now includes TikTok-style training videos to boost engagement and end-of-day reviews to help with driver coaching. Designed to act as a companion for drivers throughout the day, the app now offers new gamification features and recognition tools to reinforce positive, safe behavior. For example, administrators can send gift cards that can be redeemed at popular dining, entertainment and shopping locations directly through the app.
Worker Safety Beyond the Vehicle
The need to keep frontline teams safe extends beyond the vehicle to both local jobsites and remote locations. According to the National Safety Council, a worker is injured on the job every 7 seconds in the U.S., from a range of threats such as severe weather, crime, falls from heights or icy sidewalks, equipment injuries and more.
To help protect frontline workers outside of the vehicle, Samsara is introducing the Samsara Wearable. The new connected device is powered by the Samsara network of millions of devices and enables quick response and protection in any environment. With the addition of the wearable, organizations now have access to a holistic safety offering that can help predict risk, reduce accidents and alert administrators to urgent needs of their frontline workers. The new Samsara Wearable offers several benefits, including:
- More than one year of battery life — The Samsara network replaces the need for cellular connectivity, equipping the Samsara Wearable with a battery life of more than one year.
- One-click protection — With one click, workers can connect to emergency services, who can immediately pinpoint their precise location and access a real-time audio recording of the situation. The small, lightweight device is easy to use and gives workers an added layer of protection in the field.
- Fall detection — The Samsara Wearable can automatically detect and respond to falls in situations such as slips on icy sidewalks, falls from heights like scaffolding, cranes or trailers.
- Proactive threat alerts — In the case of severe weather or wildfires, fleet managers can proactively check in on workers and alert them of the unsafe conditions through push notifications to the device.
- One platform — Samsara connects driver and worker safety in one system — allowing for faster response time and visibility across the entire fleet.
