System Operation
The Bendix ™ BlindSpotter ® Side Object Detection System is powered by the vehicle's
ignition switch, and consists of a pulse-modulated radar sensor mounted to the side
of the vehicle coupled to a cab mounted display unit, that constantly monitors the
area within the radar's view for any objects present that may pose a collision hazard
during a lane change.
The pulse-modulated radar utilized in the BlindSpotter system will detect objects,
stationary or moving, while the vehicle is in motion or stopped. The radar's effective
range is approximately ten feet from the center view of the sensor.
