VT Side Alert™ warning system

Jun 13 | 2012

An innovative new warning system that prevent vehicles from hitting cyclists and pedestrians.

With more cyclists and pedestrians on the roads than ever before, fleet managers have become acutely aware of the need for systems such as Vision Techniques’ revolutionary new VT Side Alert™ system: an innovative new warning system that stops vehicles from hitting cyclists and pedestrians.

Both cyclists and pedestrians often listen to music with headphones on, which significantly reduces their concentration.  As a vehicle turns left, the VT Side Alert™ sensors will detect obstacles alongside it and emit an audible warning to alert the driver as well as a speaking alarm to cyclists or pedestrians. 

An LED lightboard fitted on the side of the vehicle close to the VT Side Alert™ is activated when the driver engages the left hand indicator switch.  Nigel Armstrong of Vision Techniques said: “With VT Side Alert™ pedestrians and cyclists are fully protected. The system is proven to prevent collisions, giving peace of mind to operatives and fleet managers.”
