Brigade has officially launched Backsense Radar On-Screen Display (OSD), a next-generation visual detection warning system designed specifically for demanding construction and mining environments. This innovative solution brings together radar and camera technologies into a single, unified in-cab display. The result is a clearer, more reliable understanding of the surroundings while reducing distraction and cognitive load.
At its core is Brigade's integrated approach to safety technology, where radar and camera systems work seamlessly together. Adaptive radar technology detects objects at distances of up to 60 metres and continues to perform in harsh conditions, including dust, darkness, and poor weather. AI-powered camera systems simultaneously deliver highly accurate recognition of pedestrians and other hazards.
The system is designed to adapt seamlessly to changing operating conditions. Configurable detection zones and optional speed-based adaptive detection, enabled through a GPS module, automatically adjust detection ranges in real time. This ensures consistent safety performance without the need for manual resets or reconfiguration, making it particularly well-suited to aftermarket installations where flexibility and control are essential.
Backsense Radar OSD excels in tough environments due to its versatility and scalability. The system supports up to four radar sensors and three camera inputs (AHD or CVBS). It's fully compatible with Brigade's Backeye 360 camera system, as well as AI Human Form Recognition (HFR) systems to further enhance pedestrian detection performance.
The system is built to withstand extreme conditions, with radar sensors rated to IP69K and operating in temperatures ranging from -40 degrees Celsius to +85 degrees Celsius. This ensures reliability and compliance across global markets.
Key features of Backsense Radar OSD include unified radar and camera detection in a single on-screen display, reduced in-cab distraction and improved driver focus, and detection range up to 60 metres with programmable zones.
The system's rugged design makes it well-suited for construction and mining environments, where safety is paramount. Its ability to adapt to changing conditions and provide consistent performance makes it an attractive solution for demanding applications.
Brigade's Backsense Radar OSD has the potential to revolutionize safety in high-risk environments by providing a clear and reliable understanding of the surroundings. This can lead to reduced accidents and improved driver confidence.
As the construction and mining industries continue to evolve, solutions like Backsense Radar OSD will play an increasingly important role in enhancing safety and reducing risk.
The integration of radar and camera systems enhances safety in high-risk environments, reducing the risk of accidents.
