Brigade Electronics PLC products

All vehicles have blind spots – areas around the vehicle that are obscured to the driver by bodywork or machinery. When maneuvering, these blind spots present a significant danger to anything or anyone in the vehicle’s path and inhibit the driver’s ability to operate the vehicle safely. Mirrors and single-view cameras help to see blind spots, but even with this extra assistance, the driver may still not see everything in the vehicle’s path. After all, they can only be watching the road, or looking in one monitor or mirror at any given time. Research shows that in the time it takes to scan four mirrors, assess and then react to hazards, even at speeds as low as 3mph a vehicle could travel as far as 33 feet. The Backeye®360 Recordable now provides the user with the ability to record a high-definition image to an external MDR of all the individual camera feeds.

Why Intelligent Detection Systems? Brigade has been at the forefront of road safety for over 40 years during which time it has continued to innovate and develop new products to ensure it continues to stand by its mantra of preventing collisions and saving lives.   It’s range of aftermarket solutions for heavy goods vehicles and mobile plant includes ultrasonic obstacle detection, white sound reversing alarms, camera systems, and live digital recording devices.

Brigade’s Backsense radar sensor systems are designed to detect people and objects in harsh conditions. They detect both stationary and moving objects, providing the driver with an in-cab audible and visual warning.

Our patented white noise reversing alarm is not only the safest alarm in the world due to its instant locatability and directional sound, but, with the inclusion of our self-adjusting models, it is also the smartest. Brigade’s bbs-tek smart reversing alarm continually adjusts to 5-10 decibels above the background noise level, making it ideal for environments with varying levels of noise.

Mounted to the side of the vehicle, the bbs-tek® turn indicator alarm synchronises an audible warning with the vehicle indicator lights. This means when the nearside indicator is activated, an alarm informs cyclists or pedestrians of the vehicle’s intention to turn and allows them to take appropriate action.

For plant, quarry and construction machines or environments with high ambient noise. Our heavy-duty reversing beeper alarms operate in the harshest environments keeping ground workers safe. The multi-frequency sounds can be heard through ear defenders – a huge advantage over tonal alarms where a single strident tone is blocked out.
