Iteris Inc. an Anaheim, Calif.-based developer of vision-based technology that enhances driver safety, has announced that Scania and DAF, two of the world’s leading manufacturers of trucks for heavy transport applications,
will offer Iteris’ Lane Departure Warning (LDW) technology as a customer option on their trucks.
Scania, based in Sweden, will offer Iteris’ LDW system in its new long-haul R-series and P-series models with initial production expected to begin in January 2007. Scania began purchasing initial production units in July of this year. The LDW systems will be installed at Scania’s factory located in Oskarshamn, Sweden.
DAF Trucks N.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Paccar Inc., is based in Eindhoven, Netherlands. DAF will offer Iteris’ LDW system in its CF and XF Series model lines with initial production expected to begin in March 2007. The LDW systems will be installed at DAF’s production facilities located in Westerlo, Belgium.
“We’re pleased to be the exclusive supplier of LDW systems to Scania and DAF,” said Jack Johnson, president and CEO for Iteris. “Having two more major truck manufacturers as customers is a strong indication that safety remains a top priority for the European commercial truck industry. At the recent IAA Show in Hannover, Germany, we were extremely proud to see our LDW system on display and available on Mercedes, MAN, Scania, DAF, and Iveco trucks, as well as EvoBus and Neoplan luxury coaches.”
