Brigade Electronics launches 360 camera monitoring system

Brigade Electronics, with U.S. offices in Portland, Indiana, has launched its latest 360-degree camera monitor system the Backeye 360 BN360-200, designed to incorporate a range of features to eliminate blind spots and improve safety.

Designed to assist with low speed maneuvering, the technology provides drivers with a 360-degree bird’s-eye view of the area surrounding the vehicle using an in-cab monitor display.

Brigade says that in the time it takes to scan four mirrors, assess and then react to hazards, even at speeds as low as 3.1 miles per hour, a vehicle could travel as far as 33 feet. The Backeye 360 BN360-200 is designed to address the issue by eliminating blind spots and creating maximum visibility around the vehicle, in addition to limiting the drivers focus to only one monitor for the fastest response to avoid any visible hazard.

The Backeye 360 BN360-200 retains all the features of its predecessor, the BN360-000, along with benefit of customizable software that can be set up using the monitor and accompanying infrared (IR) remote control by one engineer.

Nineteen different on-screen views are available, including portrait and landscape options, full 360-degree vehicle modes and split screen modes with a 360-degree view.

Customizable triggers allow for a complete hands-off experience to allow the driver to focus on maneuvering the vehicle and reacting to possible hazards.

“The Backeye 360 BN360-200 is an exciting new addition to our range of safety cameras,” Corey Heniser from Brigade Electronics says. “Customizable screen views and system triggers integrated to the vehicle provide a whole new driving experience, ensuring full 360-degree visibility around the vehicle at all times, eliminating blind spots and improving fleet safety.”
