What does the signal triangle after the P mean?
1 Answers
The P with a triangle symbol represents the parking sensor. The parking sensor is a safety assist device for parking or reversing, which can inform the driver about surrounding obstacles through audible alerts or more intuitive displays. It eliminates the hassle of checking around when parking, reversing, or starting the vehicle, and helps the driver overcome blind spots and unclear vision. The parking sensor mainly consists of ultrasonic sensors, a controller, and a display or buzzer. Below are the relevant details: Ultrasonic sensors: Their main function is to emit and receive ultrasonic signals, then input the signals into the main unit for display. Controller: It processes the signals and calculates the distance and orientation between the vehicle and obstacles. Display or buzzer: When the sensors detect that the vehicle is at a dangerous distance from an obstacle, the system alerts the driver through the display or buzzer.
