Scout HDC-45 Quad Dash Cam
The Scout HDC-45 Quad Dash Cam is a game changer for industrial and heavy duty vehicles, supporting up to 4 cameras for comprehensive video coverage, without the high hardware cost and the installation complexity of a DVR system. In addition to its integrated forward and interior facing cameras, the HDC-45 can accommodate 2 additional cameras, such as mirror-mounted side cameras, in order to effectively capture merge related incidents.
The Scout Quad Dash Cam is unique in its ability to provide 4 separate camera views, while greatly simplifying installation. The Scout HDC-45 incorporates an integrated 1080p forward-facing wide angle camera with Starlight Vision to provide an exceptionally clear view of the road ahead in all light conditions, as well as a 1080p interior-facing wide angle camera with infrared lighting for superior night vision. What makes this product unique is the ability to connect 2 additional cameras, such as side cameras for 360 degree protection. This ensures you’ll have the evidence you need to prove what actually occurred in any given situation, such as an accident or other event.
In today’s market, Ai or “articial intelligence” is becoming mainstream. The use of Ai enables a powerful set of features that monitor and coach driver behavior in order to increase safety. These features can include forward-facing Ai, called “ADAS” (Advanced Driver Assistance) or driver-facing Ai, called “DSM” (Driver Safety Monitoring). These features are outlined above. Scout is unique in its ability to be upgraded in the field, over-the-air to enable its full artificial intelligence capabilities. This means that you can purchase an economical Scout dash cam system now, then upgrade it remotely to license it’s integrated ADAS and/or DSM feature sets, whever you’re ready.
Scout fleet dash cams combine GPS technology, high definition video, driving behavior analysis and 4G connectivity to bring new insight and awareness to drivers and their supervisors. Pre-defined events are automatically sent to the cloud-based Evidence Dashboard for supervisory review. Extending Scout SDC-45’s capabilities by activating its ADAS and/or DSM technology enables additional safety monitoring. Events such as following too close, collision warnings, driver fatigue, smartphone use, etc., are also sent to the Evidence Dashboard for review.
Click on any automatically uploaded event in the Evidence Dashboard to watch what actually occurred, showing the specified camera(s). The VSS (Video Safety System) dashboard lets you configure these events and exceptions to suit your needs. In the event of a crash, the complete event can be automatically streamed to VSS System for review, where you may use it for training review or evidence. Other situations requiring review may not have been captured by a pre-defined trigger. For example, if your driver was involved in a verbal or physical altercation with another motorist or worker. Or, a passenger in one of your vehicles complained about your driver’s behavior. Scout dash cam systems are set up to capture and store 100% of the view from each camera, the entire time the vehicle is in operation. Up to 4 weeks of complete driving history is stored on-board the device, which can be downloaded and/or viewed in high definition at anytime. In addition to being able to watch or download stored history over the cellular network via web browser or the included apps, it may also be viewed or downloaded over WiFi from the included smartphone app. Larger fleets can also install WiFi in the yard and set up rules to automatically download activities when back at yard.
Upgrade to Ai Anytime
Ai Upgrade Included
Scout video systems utilize the very latest video compression technology, called H.265, which effectively doubles the amount of video history that the dashcam can store. This is important when an incident comes to your attention, requiring review, that occurred several days previously. Whereas most systems will only store a few days of history, Scout can provide up to 4 weeks of history. (Depending on the number of cameras and hours per day the vehicle is active) Scout’s H.265 advanced video compression technology, combined with it’s sub-stream capability also dramatically reduces cellular data consumption when live video streaming, using orders of magnitude less data than most competitors.
The Scout HDC-45 quad dash cam system provides exceptional flexibility, with support for up to 4 1080p HD cameras. Choose from a wide range of camera types, including side cameras, rear cameras or mini-dome cameras. With heavy duty vehicles, such as tow trucks, dump trucks, box trucks, street sweepers, etc., side cameras, mounted on the mirrors facing backwards are critical to caputure merge related evidence. In buses, mini-dome cameras can caputure passenger related situations. The HDC-45 is also future proof with its ability to be upgraded over-the-air at anytime to full Ai, including ADAS and DSM. Why pay for Ai if you don’t need it?

VSS allows exceptional flexibility on the creation of triggered events -these are situations where the driver’s exceeds specified parameters, such as following too close, falling asleep, smoking, etc. These events, when triggered can cause video, audio and location information to be uploaded automatically to the Evidence Dashboard where a supervisor can witness them as they unfolded.
Predefined events are uploaded automatically to the Evidence Dashboard for supervisory review. Each event can consist of multiple camera views with video history, snapshots, audio and alarm information. You can filter the evidence dashboard by vehicle, fleet or alarm type(s). Clicking on the share button lets you share via QR code or link to a third party.
Clicking on any thumbnail as show above launches that specific evidence event as shown below. Now, see the map where it occured and a summary page with the event description, driver information, etc. Clicking on one of the thumnails on the right plays the histrical event on the left, allowing you to witness as the entire event unfolded.
