Fleet Safety - Commercial
Vehicle Backing Sensor device
 Our Fleet Safety and Collision Avoidance System
has three - six ultrasonic sensors built into the rear bumper, a
dedicated computer and a digital display inside the vehicle. When the vehicle is
put in reverse, the sensors send out signals that bounce off objects that are
within range of the sensors. The same sensors detect these bounced signals,
which in turn, feeds the signals to the computer. The computer then determines
how far away the objects are relative to the rear of the vehicle and sends a
signal, consisting of a series of beeps, to the digital display in the vehicle.
As the vehicle approaches an object the interval between the warning beeps gets
shorter until the distance to the object is about (12 inches) when the beep
sounds continuously and 00 is displayed on the digital screen.
The Reversing
Sensor System starts to detect objects at about (9 feet) from the rear bumper,
but Stratus warns that the detection range and sensitivity will vary with
different objects, and that solid steel or concrete for example are easier to
detect than perhaps a plastic garbage bag or a bush
