The new generation of active blind-spot detection recognises humans using Artificial Intelligence (AI), warning the driver when a person is detected. The system alerts drivers to potential dangers, such as a vulnerable road user (VRU) in its blind spot. Brigade’s HFR camera substantially reduces false positive warnings by only alerting the driver when there is a real danger of collision with a VRU.
The operating system used in the cameras is ‘trained’ to recognise people based on algorithms. The system has an HD camera with processing power embedded, enabling it to identify whether there is a human within the detection range.
Installation is easy with the ‘plug and play’ system, makes it an attractive option for large fleets. The camera has IP69K rating which means it is protected against ingress of dust, high temperature and high-pressure water. The minicomputer is built into the camera unit and processes the information to continually improve detection and reduce false alarms. Brigade adaptor cable provides the confidence that camera is always on, and boot time is zero, so the driver can set off with confidence after ignition.
