What Are Front and Rear Parking Sensors?
1 Answers
Front and rear parking sensors are parking assistance devices. Front parking sensors refer to the sensors installed at the front of the vehicle, with probes mounted on the front bumper. These probes radiate at approximately a 45-degree angle to detect objects in all directions. Rear parking sensors have probes installed on the rear bumper, which can detect obstacles below the bumper that are difficult for the driver to see from inside the car, such as flower beds or playing children, and issue an alert. When the gear lever is shifted into reverse, the parking sensors automatically activate. If the probes detect an object behind the vehicle, a buzzer will sound a warning. As the vehicle continues to reverse, the frequency of the alarm sound will gradually increase, eventually turning into a continuous tone.
