The company said the system is designed to improve road safety and operational transparency for fleet operators.
The company also presented an AI-driven video management system providing 360-degree vehicle visibility and real-time event detection, aimed at enhancing driver safety and compliance.
ZF highlighted the expansion of its aftermarket portfolio across passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and off-highway applications. New products include TRW DTEC ceramic brake pads for passenger cars, SACHS heavy-duty clutches for commercial vehicles, and tractor clutch discs and kits for agricultural and industrial applications.
The portfolio also includes pneumatic cartridges and door control solutions for buses, reflecting ZF’s strategy to localise OE-grade technologies for the Indian aftermarket.
