Radar Sensors solves complex vehicle detection challenges.
Comprised of adjustable-field and retroreflective models, R-GAGE(TM) QT50R sensors utilize Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave radar to detect moving or stationary objects such as trains, cars, trucks, and cargo. Adjustable-field model emits defined beam of high-frequency radio waves from internal antenna, which processes signal reflected back to receiving antenna. Detecting objects located in...

Using ultrasonic sensors, Side View Assist blind-spot assistant is capable of registering objects 3 m to side and diagonally to rear of vehicle. If sensors detect vehicle, signal is checked for plausibility by system's electronics to prevent false alarms. System then warns driver optically, and if driver fails to react, it will provide acoustic warning. Working at speeds of 10-140 kph, Side View...
