Vehicle radar system upgrade

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

For many years, Sentinel Systems’ Auto-braking Radar System has helped commercial vehicles across the UK to safely reverse without presenting a threat to surrounding pedestrians, cyclists and other vehicles. 

With manufacturing technology rapidly developing, Sentinel has adapted this established system to utilise new and advanced components that enhance the performance of the system whilst continuing to offer an accurate and reliable auto-braking device for commercial vehicles.

The patented Auto-braking Radar System is a reversing aid that can prevent collisions with third party vehicle and properties as well as pedestrians and cyclists, whilst protecting the vehicle itself from any damage. Having the system installed is said to not only encourage responsible driving but could potentially save fleet operators a significant amount of money in insurance claims and vehicle or property damage repairs.

The high-spec system is discreetly installed at the rear of the vehicle to detect obstructions and their distance from the vehicle whilst it is reversing, and automatically applying the brakes if it becomes too close. Like standard reversing aids, the system also audibly warns the driver of any obstructions within a certain distance from the rear of the vehicle to allow them to take caution when reversing.
