Brigade launches AI-equipped detection cameras

Brigade Electronics, a  Portland, Indiana-based provider of vehicles safety systems, has launched detection cameras equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) to the U.S. market.

The latest addition to Brigade’s portfolio of safety solutions, AI cameras represent a new development in active blind spot detection that use AI to recognize humans within a predefined detection zone and warn drivers visually and audibly before a possible collision occurs.

“Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing safety for fleet operators and drivers, and our AI Intelligent Detection Cameras are a great example of this,” Brigade Electronics CEO Corey Heniser says. “Our AI cameras require no configuration software, so they are quick and easy to install, making them ideal for busy fleets across a range of industries, including transport, logistics, construction and passenger vehicles like buses and coaches.”

Compared to traditional vehicle cameras, Brigade’s AI cameras have a range of improved features and offer enhanced visibility at both the front and rear of the vehicle.

“The introduction of AI cameras in the U.S. by Brigade Electronics is set to make a significant impact on the commercial vehicle safety landscape,” Brigade Electronics Senior Product Manager Thierry Bourgeay says. “Their advanced features and capabilities make them an invaluable tool for fleet operators and drivers, ensuring that our roads are safer and more secure than ever before.”

The key benefits of Brigade’s AI Intelligent Detection Camera are that:

• it produces high definition images;
• it recognizes and alerts drivers to people in a vehicle’s front and rear blind spots;
• people detected are shown in a colored box overlayed on the HD camera image on the driver’s monitor;
• image processing and the overlay of the detected person are built into the camera;
• plug and play AI cameras connect directly to Brigade’s monitors and, if required, buzzers;
• it includes the Brigade Select range of connectors;
• it is compatible with all Brigade HD monitors and MDR digital video recorders; and
• it is available in front and rear formats.
