Monitors

Brigade in-cab monitors are a vital part of the safety solution, giving the driver essential information about the vehicle's surroundings. Whether the customer needs an entry-level reversing camera system, or a full mobile digital recording solution with 360-degree viewing and recording, Brigade has a solution. With single to multiple camera inputs and auto-triggers, Brigade monitors work on any application in any industry, regardless of the amount of camera views connected. Monitors range from compact 5" screens suitable for smaller commercial vehicles or where cab space is limited, to 10.5" suitable for larger heavy-duty equipment or where permanent multiple images are required.

Cameras

Rear View Camera - the rear blind spot is a huge problem regardless of the type or size of vehicle. In fact 90% of reversing accidents occur off public roads, and account for 1/6 of claims. Usage of reversing cameras can prevent costly collisions and assists drivers with safe and easier maneuvering. 

Front View Camera - allow for drivers to more easily see objects in front of the vehicle to prevent accidents and avoidable vehicle damage.

Side View Camera - the nearside blind spot is accountable for many collisions. Most cyclist fatalities happen at low speeds, typically at road junctions and when pulling off from a stationary position. Sideswipe collisions on motorways are another common result of poor visibility. This problem is exacerbated when the driver position is on the wrong side in left-hand drive and right-hand drive traffic. The usage of side view cameras can remove nearside blind spots, and reduce the risk of sideswipe collisions when turning and changing lanes.

Brigade's range of cameras include models with the following features:

• IP69K
• Heated lens
• Shutter
• Flush-mount
• Adjustable lens position
• LEDs for ultra-low light performance
• Mirror and/or normal view
• Day/night sensor
• Audio capable and audio disabled

Wireless Applications

Connecting a rear view camera system to a large vehicle can be timely and difficult due to the amount of cable required to ensure a connection. Brigade's new wireless system eliminates excess cabling, saving up to two hours fitment time and removes the need for additional retractable coiled cables on articulated vehicles. The wireless technology gives almost instantaneous pictures (camera to monitor has a 200 millisecond latency), and is not affected by electrical interference from other vehicles or machinery. The camera image is sent to the monitor via a transmitter and receiver, and once paired, the wireless link is secure. The system also boasts a re-pairing function, which allows the receiver to be linked to a different transmitter making interchanging trailers possible for drop and hook applications.
