Vision Techniques VT BanksMan – Auto Braking Reversing Radar

features -> safety

Advanced detection with automated braking for enhanced safety.

The VT Banksman Auto-Braking system combines high-accuracy radar detection with automated brake intervention to prevent low-speed collisions. Using cutting-edge 77GHz FMCW radar, the system detects both moving and stationary objects with 100% accuracy.

If the driver fails to respond to visual or audible in-cab warnings, the system automatically activates the brakes, bringing the vehicle to a safe, controlled stop.

Key Benefits:

  • 100% Object Detection Accuracy – Identifies stationary and moving hazards with precision.
  • Programmable Detection Zones – Customisable to match your specific vehicle type and operating environment.
  • False Alarm Prevention – Intelligent distance measurement reduces unnecessary braking events.
  • Auto-Brake Capability – Brakes are automatically applied if the driver is distracted or unresponsive to alerts.
  • Monitoring & Review – Auto-brake activations and overrides can be reviewed using the ABLU unit.
  • Compact & Retrofit-Friendly – Easy to install on almost any vehicle configuration.

This system is also available in a warning-only configuration for operations that prefer driver alerts without brake activation.
