WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., Feb. 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- I.D. Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDSY), a leading provider of enterprise asset management and Industrial Internet of Things technology , has been named a recipient of Heavy Duty Trucking’s Top 20 Products of 2018 Award for its LV Asset and Cargo Visibility Series (LV Series), a suite of products that raises the bar in technologies targeting the logistics industry.

Each year,  Heavy Duty Trucking  editors attend press conferences and review an array of news releases on the latest new products for trucking that have appeared in the magazine or on the Truckinginfo.com website . At year’s end, they identify the very best of the year’s introductions for the Top 20 Products, which are chosen based on the level of innovation, ability to address significant industry issues, and potential benefit to the bottom line.

I.D. Systems’ LV Series is a line of sophisticated asset-tracking and telemetry products that offer new ways to access more than asset location and sensor data but also monitor the cargo inside the trailer or container. In addition, there’s Lucy ®, an interactive voice-user interface for accessing operational and analytical data to assist with making better decisions. The LV Series offers significant benefits that include: optimizing driver efficiency, identifying underutilized assets, reducing idle times, faster turns, and verifying trailer and cargo status before hook-up – all of which improve productivity and the driver’s quality of work-life. I.D. Systems debuted the LV series in October 2018 at the American Trucking Associations’ Management Conference and Exhibition.
