Blind Spot Monitoring Radar System For Trucks

SKU 600-BSM-MW

Additional Information

Truck blind spots – and road users who are unaware of them – are the cause of hundreds of collisions every year.

The Spotto Blind Spot Radar is like an extra set of eyes that alerts the driver to objects in their blind spot. Combining Radar detection with visual and audible alerts, it’s an intelligent, speed-adaptive driver assistance system that lets you change lanes and manoeuvre with confidence.

  • Detects moving vehicles in blind spot at speeds over 30km/h
  • Detects static objects in blind spot at speeds under 30km/h
  • Visual indicator with audible alert when turn signal activated
  • Works in all weather conditions and visibility levels
  • Compatible with all brands of truck
  • Real-time Alerts Prevent Collisions

Intelligent Dual-Zone Detection Function With low speed Turn-Assist.

Incorporating the most advanced high-frequency microwave sensor technology available to the automotive industry, the Spotto Radar is fast, accurate and reliable, even in rain, fog or snow.

The system is able to detect multiple objects and simultaneously measure and monitor their speed, direction of travel and distance to the truck, up to 85m away.

Spotto’s intelligent dual-zone detection function adjusts the system’s parameters relative to the truck’s driving speed – altering the size of the target zone and objective focus.

At Speeds above 30km/h focuses on moving objects only

At driving speeds above 30km/h, the BSM-MW monitors the adjacent lane, with a target zone that extends 3m from the truck and up to 12m along the side of the truck, extending forward of the bonnet.

In this mode, Spotto assists the driver during lane changing manoeuvres, by focusing its attention on moving objects only. Including all types of vehicles, motorcycles and bicycles that might be traveling in the adjacent lane.

To reduce false alerts and minimise driver distraction, Spotto will filter out stationary objects, like guardrails, barriers and parked vehicles.

At Speeds below 30km/h focuses on all objects, including pedestrians.

Spotto’s Turn-Assist feature operates when the vehicle speed is below 30km/h, typically when turning at intersections, changing lanes in traffic or manoeuvering in the yard.

In this urban mode, Spotto’s target zone decreases to 1.5m from the truck and 3m wide. And will alert the driver when any object, both moving and stationary, are within the target zone – including pedestrians, cyclists and motorcycles that may be hidden out-of-sight alongside the truck.
