What does the blind spot monitoring system mean?
2 Answers
The blind spot monitoring system refers to the function that uses cameras installed on the left and right rearview mirrors to display images of vehicles located within the blind spot area on the display screen. This feature helps reduce visual blind spots in the rearview mirrors, assists in expanding the field of vision, and allows for confirmation of a wider rear view when preparing to change lanes, providing more practical safety for everyone inside and outside the vehicle. Below is an introduction to the reversing camera display: 1. Camera installation position: The camera is located above the rear license plate. The camera's shooting range is very limited and cannot capture objects near the corners or under the bumper. The displayed image may vary depending on the vehicle's direction or road conditions, and the distance shown on the screen may differ from the actual distance. 2. Reversing trajectory lines: The reversing distance guide lines are divided into three parts: red, yellow, and green, indicating the distance range of obstacles from the bumper as follows: Red: 20 cm~50 cm; Yellow: 50 cm~150 cm; Green: 150 cm~300 cm.
The vehicle blind spot monitoring system is essentially a specialized camera setup installed on the car. While driving, it displays real-time footage of areas you can't see along the vehicle's sides on the in-car screen, helping prevent collisions with other vehicles or pedestrians when changing lanes or turning. Having driven for over a decade myself, I used to rely solely on rearview mirrors but still missed things occasionally. With this feature, accidents have significantly decreased. It's particularly useful in congested urban traffic or tight parking situations, offering clear images and simple operation - just press a button or let it activate automatically. Safety experts highly recommend this device as it reduces blind spot-related accidents by nearly one-third. In practical driving, just a glance at the screen shows side conditions, making driving both convenient and safer. Now most new vehicles come equipped with it, and it really should become standard across all models.
