A vehicle-mounted imaging system designed to provide the operator with a visual representation of the areas adjacent to the vehicle’s sides. This technology enhances awareness, particularly in situations where visibility is limited due to vehicle size or environmental conditions. These systems typically incorporate a camera, a display, and associated wiring and mounting hardware.
The implementation of such systems offers significant advantages in terms of safety and operational efficiency. By mitigating blind spots, these devices reduce the risk of accidents during lane changes, turns, and parking maneuvers. Furthermore, they contribute to minimizing potential damage to the vehicle and surrounding infrastructure. The need for enhanced situational awareness has grown with the increasing size and complexity of commercial vehicles.
