# What does Vision AI do and what hardware does it include?
## Vision AI combines GPS tracking, fleet management software and a dual-channel AI dashcam with FaceID driver identification, ADAS and DSC monitoring.
Vision AI is Argus's all-in-one AI dashcam plan, combining GPS vehicle tracking, fleet management software and a dual-channel AI dashcam in a single plan. It gives fleet operators visibility, safety and driver coaching evidence without running separate systems.

## What does Vision AI do?
Vision AI combines GPS vehicle tracking, fleet management software and an AI-powered dual-channel dashcam in one plan. Its fleet management features are aligned with those available on the OMNI plan. For current pricing, see your pricing schedule or your account manager.
## How does Vision AI work?
The dashcam has two wide-angle lenses: a 140-degree road-facing camera that monitors traffic and road conditions, and a 170-degree driver-facing camera that monitors in-cabin activity. It stores footage locally on a 256 GB SD card, in addition to uploading relevant event clips to Argus, and stays connected via 4G and Wi-Fi for real-time video uploads, remote video playback and live camera viewing, so footage can be accessed even when the vehicle is turned off. The dashcam is compact, at roughly 12 cm wide and 7 cm high.
Driver identification uses Vision AI FaceID: uploading driver face photos to the Argus dashboard lets the AI facial recognition system automatically identify who is driving each vehicle, without separate Driver ID hardware. The road-facing camera provides AI-powered ADAS alerts (for example forward collision and pedestrian detection warnings), and the driver-facing camera provides AI-powered DSC monitoring (for example fatigue, drowsiness, phone use, smoking and distraction detection) — see [what events the Vision AI camera detects](https://help.argustracking.co.nz/knowledge-base/what-events-does-the-vision-ai-camera-detect?hsLang=en-au) for the full list.
## Who uses Vision AI, and when would I use it?
Vision AI suits transport and logistics, construction, civil contractors, service fleets, courier and delivery companies, utilities, local government, and any business operating commercial vehicles that wants combined GPS tracking, safety monitoring and video evidence in one plan.
## What do I need to use Vision AI?
A Vision AI plan subscription, with the dashcam fitted to each vehicle you want covered. For current plan and pricing details, talk to your account manager or [contact Argus support](https://support.argustracking.com/new-request).
## How do I get started with Vision AI?
Once your vehicles are fitted with the dashcam, register drivers for FaceID (see [how to set up Vision AI FaceID for drivers](https://help.argustracking.co.nz/knowledge-base/how-do-i-set-up-vision-ai-faceid-for-drivers?hsLang=en-au)), and use the Vision AI events screen to review what's been detected (see [how to review Vision AI events](https://help.argustracking.co.nz/knowledge-base/how-do-i-review-vision-ai-events?hsLang=en-au)).
This article doesn't cover *event footage retrieval after an incident* — see [how to get camera footage after an incident](https://help.argustracking.co.nz/knowledge-base/how-do-i-get-camera-footage-after-an-incident?hsLang=en-au). It also doesn't cover *the camera's monthly data allowance* — see the [Vision AI data allowance](https://help.argustracking.co.nz/knowledge-base/what-is-the-vision-ai-data-allowance-and-how-do-i-get-notified-about-it?hsLang=en-au).
