Locator 690 (IDU-401) is a Green-Gps compatible, vehicle-mounted Mobile IoT device engineered for modern fleet management that combines intelligent image capture with robust GPS telemetry. Designed to integrate with existing DVR/MDVR systems, the Locator 690 performs on-device AI detection to identify abnormal driving events and automatically capture and upload event images to your cloud fleet platform. For fleet managers using Green-Gps, this device speeds incident investigation by indexing pre-, during- and post-event photos alongside location and trajectory data, enabling faster, evidence-driven decisions.
As a Green-Gps compatible tracker, Locator 690 adds real-time tracking and image evidence without replacing installed video recorders. The unit supports on-demand live image retrieval via the platform and mobile apps and can be configured to trigger captures from up to five IO inputs. Its combination of event-driven workflows, local buffering, and cellular/GNSS connectivity makes it a practical fit for logistics, public transport, municipal fleets and other commercial vehicle operations that require reliable telemetry, event evidence and improved driver behavior management.
Key Highlights
- Green-Gps compatible GPS tracker with integrated, on-device AI for event detection and automated image capture.
- Event-driven image evidence (rollover, collision, harsh maneuvers, overspeed, SOS, idling, engine off and more) for faster incident resolution.
- Real-time remote retrieval of live images through the Green-Gps platform and mobile apps for immediate situational awareness.
- Flexible IO: up to 5 configurable digital inputs, analog inputs and multiple outputs to connect sensors and trigger workflows.
- Robust cellular connectivity (2G/3G/4G) and MT3333 GNSS chipset for reliable real-time tracking and telemetry.
- Local buffering of ~30,000 GPS records and circular event image storage to ensure data continuity during outages.
- Compact, vehicle-mountable form factor with industrial operating range for commercial fleet use.
How It Works with Green-Gps
When integrated with Green-Gps, Locator 690 delivers synchronized telemetry and image evidence to the cloud platform. The device’s AI detects abnormal driving events and captures images that are uploaded and indexed in Green-Gps for conditional search, reporting and visualization. Fleet managers can use Green-Gps dashboards and mobile apps to receive alerts, view live images on demand, and correlate photos with GPS tracks and event metadata.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates via 2G/3G/4G cellular connectivity and MT3333 GNSS.
- Event-driven image capture and automated upload for rollover, collision, hard turn, harsh braking, rapid acceleration, overspeed, SOS and more.
- Configurable IO-triggered captures: extend event detection with up to five digital inputs and additional analog/temperature inputs.
- Local buffering and forward-on-connect: stores GPS and event data (~30,000 records) and images (up to 200 events) when offline.
- Live image retrieval from the vehicle through Green-Gps for on-demand situational monitoring and rapid response.

Use Cases
- Fleet incident investigation — capture pre/during/post-event images to shorten evidence collection and accelerate claims handling.
- Driver behavior and safety programs — detect harsh braking, rapid acceleration, harsh turns and overspeed events and link them to photographic proof.
- Public transport and municipal fleets — real-time live image retrieval and indexed event reporting for passenger safety and operational oversight.
- Logistics and delivery operations — combine GPS telemetry with event images and peripheral sensors (temperature, barcode scanners, RFID) for proof of service and compliance.
- Vehicle monitoring where DVR/MDVR is retained — augment existing video recorders with intelligent image capture and cloud indexing without replacing installed systems.
Why Choose This Tracker with Green-Gps
Locator 690 is built for organizations that need more than position data — it provides actionable image evidence tied to GPS and event telemetry, and is Green-Gps compatible out of the box. By combining on-device AI, configurable IO triggers and reliable cellular/GNSS connectivity, the device reduces time spent searching long video recordings and improves incident reconstruction. For fleet managers focused on safety, compliance and operational efficiency, this unit adds a searchable, image-backed layer to Green-Gps’s real-time tracking and reporting capabilities. Use the device’s digital outputs and inputs to integrate with vehicle systems and platform workflows, and leverage Green-Gps to correlate telemetry with fuel monitoring, ignition state, immobilizer actions or external Bluetooth sensors managed through the platform for a complete fleet visibility solution.
