Brigade Electronics will launch its Smarteye 360-degree camera system to the North American commercial truck market at the NTEA Work Truck Show.

 Smarteye is the first in a new generation of intelligent reversing safety solutions: a camera system that eradicates blind spots and dramatically reduces collisions thanks to a bird’s eye view of the entire vehicle and its immediate surroundings.

Comprising four cameras, placed around the vehicle, Smarteye technology works by "stitching" each image together to provide a complete and accurate panoramic view from above. Each camera’s ultrawide angle and 187-degree lens renders a realistic, light-balanced video image displayed in real time on a high-definition cab monitor ­­­­– with program option to highlight the area of greatest risk.

As part of a controlled experiment, the Smarteye system was set the ultimate test. A driver was tasked with reversing a truck with all of its windows blacked-out. With the system installed, extreme caution, and a slow, steady pace, the challenge was completed easily and in complete safety.
