The company plans to capitalise on its reputation as a premium vehicle safety systems developer as it moves into the Japanese market.

Brigade voluntarily submitted their key products, including Sidescan Predict and Radar Predict, to independent testing at Loughborough University, where they passed the new Progressive Safe System (PSS) requirements for both Blind Spot Information Systems (BSIS) and Moving Off Information Systems (MOIS).

Brigade has introduced a refreshed brand identity which includes a new logo and updated visual elements designed to reflect its evolution from a hardware supplier to a technology-first company that offers innovative safety solutions harnessing AI-powered technologies.

All heavy vehicles over 12 tonnes will require a permit to drive into Greater London, including vehicles from outside of the UK. If a vehicle has a DVS rating of less than 3 stars, operators will need to fit extra safety devices to comply, such as radars and sensors that alert drivers to vulnerable road users who are in a vehicle’s blind spot.

Over 200 exhibitors gathered at this past Road Transport Expo (RTX), which took place from the 28th-30th of June at the NAEC Stoneleigh, in Warwickshire, UK. The T&BB team was out in full force to bring you all the latest news from the show.

In a bid to make roads safer by reducing on-road collisions, the dual radar system uses a combination of radar technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to detect road objects, vehicles and road users, predicting if a collision is likely to happen and then promptly notifies the driver with an audio and visual alert.

Brigade is making advances in safety systems with use of artificial intelligence.

The 2023 Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham from the 18th – 20th of April, was an exciting time for the UK truck market with 223 exhibitors displaying their new product offerings.

The Sidescan Predict comprises six sensors which use ultrasonic technology that alerts the driver to potential vehicles, objects and pedestrians, designed for collision avoidance within a detection area of 2.5 metres.

Brigade Electronics Plc, a specialist in electronic warning and safety devices, has launched three new dashcam offerings to suit a range of requirements.

Kent-based Brigade Electronics has launched a new pedestrian alert system for electric vehicles called Quiet Vehicle Sounder that uses a speaker system designed to reduce collisions between pedestrians and hybrid/electric vehicles.
