Back Up Safetey 101

Back Up Sensors

Have you seen those dime sized sensors on the back bumper of a vehicle and wondered what they’re for?  Back-up safety is a very important, but often overlooked area of the mobile electronics industry. Whether it’s installing reverse sensors on your bumper, or a back-up camera system, the chances of a back-up accident are reduced dramatically.  Every vehicle has what is known as the “blind zone”, which are areas not visible to the driver, even when using mirrors or looking behind you.  This is a dangerous area as children and objects can be behind or in front of your vehicle without being visible.  In an average week, over 50 children are involved in back-over accidents, and a majority of them were located in the blind zone of the vehicle.  A back-up safety system in many cases would have prevented these accidents from occurring.
