Apr 01, 2008 Using radar technology based on Safe Braking Distance, FrontAlert(TM) Collision Alert System (CAS) detects hazards in vehicle's path and alerts driver of potential collision via 3.5 in. LCD interface. Green light indicates system is active, and yellow light indicates detected object (no action needed). Red light and alert tone tell driver to take caution, decelerate, brake, or take safe evasive action to avoid collision. Alerts stop once corrective action has been taken.

Feb 08, 2008 Designed for commercial vehicles, OnGuard(TM) consists of forward-looking, radar-based adaptive cruise control system that can detect multiple moving and fixed objects at distances up to 500 ft. System coordinates responses from engine, transmission, and anti-lock braking systems through communications across SAE J1939 data network. Active braking automatically uses vehicle foundation brakes to alert driver and decelerate vehicle when pre-set vehicle following distance is compromised.

Nov 26, 2007 Based on capacitive technologies, Body Angel system features adaptable sensor shapes, transparency to X-rays, and communicates with external CPU. Sensors provide anti-collision safety function while simultaneously performing 3D contouring of patient. Body Angel Ring performs front detection, Body Angel Side performs side detection, and Body Angel Antenna is X-ray-transparent sensor.

May 25, 2007 By scanning up to 10 m in front of vehicle, closing velocity (CV) sensor helps drivers completely avoid or reduce severity of collisions when traveling at speeds under 25 mph. If calculated distance determines imminent collision, system responds by putting brakes on alert mode to ensure sufficient pressure for stopping. System also initiates automatic braking up to 0.5 g if driver takes foot off accelerator, regulates/optimizes braking power, and tightens seat belts.

Jan 03, 2007 Suited for applications using 3-5 kg capacity robots, Model SR-61 helps prevent damage to robotic end-effectors resulting from robot crashes. In operation, sensor is adjusted to support typical loads experienced by robot arm in all directions including angular, compression, and torsional. Sensor absorbs crash and resets itself within 0.001 in. of original position. Three-wire PNP proximity switch set to actuate within 0.020 in. of axial motion ensures reliable operation.

Nov 07, 2006 Resistant to inclement weather and harsh environmental conditions, 24 GHz ultra wide band (UWB) radar sensors provide object detection and tracking. Parking assistance can be provided by rear-mounted sensors with 1.8 m range that can detect small objects in front of large objects and measure direction of arrival. Sensors with ability to scan out up to 30 m provide warning of imminent collision so airbags can be armed and seat restraints pre-tensioned.
