Reversing Radars
VT Banksman and VT Sensorvision are the most sophisticated forward, reversing radar and autobraking systems on the market. These award-winning systems have been developed to reduce collisions, protect staff, assets and members of the public.
vt banksman
Specifically designed for on-road commercial vehicles, this state of the art programmable radar system detects moving and stationary objects with 100% accuracy. The in-cab visual and audible alarms alert the driver of obstacles giving enough time to react. Therefore, significantly reducing the risk of collision
VT BANKSMAN has been developed using state of the art FMCW technology (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) for 100% accurate detection.
Whether you require reverse or forward detection we can tailor the system to suit. The radar can be programmed with customised detection patterns tailored to suit your vehicle or application and is able to detect hazards up to 25m from the position of the radar.
VT BANKSMAN recognises objects that have entered into the programmable fields which are set up into three detection zones, the driver is given three distinct warnings via in-cab visual and audible alarms that increase with intensity the closer the hazard gets to the vehicle, giving the driver ample time to react.
The implementation of speed and direction sensing makes unwanted and irritating false alarms a thing of the past and ultimately create the safest radar system on the market.
Industry proved for over 25 years this robust piece of safety equipment, complete with a heavy-duty stainless steel radar head is unaffected by moisture, dust, vibration, heat, cold, UV, snow, ice, high wind, water and mud.
vt banksman autobraking
Specifically designed for on-road commercial vehicles, this award-winning state of the art radar and autobraking system not only detects moving or stationary objects with 100% accuracy but will apply the brakes should the driver be distracted and not respond to the in-cab visual and audible alarms bringing the vehicle to a controlled stop, therefore removing any risk of collision,
VT BANKSMAN AUTOBRAKING has been developed using state of the art FMCW technology (Microwave Radar) for 100% accurate detections. The system is programmed with tailored customised detection zones to suit your vehicle or application. The spread and length of the beam can be set to the width of your vehicle or up to 25m in length.
It recognises potential hazards that enter into the programmed detection zones. Giving three distinct warnings to the driver via audible and visual displays which increase with intensity the closer the vehicle gets to the object, giving the driver enough time to react, however, should the driver not react to the alarms VT BANKSMAN AUTOBRAKING will automatically apply the breaks to bring the vehicle to a controlled stop.
Should the driver, who is now aware of the hazards, still need to reverse, a manual over-ride button can be used. This button will activate the over-ride mode, disabling the braking portion of the system for that period of reverse. The unit will still give an audible warning.
The implementation of speed and direction sensing makes unwanted and irritating false alarms a thing of the past and for full accountability, the BLB (Brake Logic Box) logs all range changes, brake activations, overrides and faults, therefore should an incident occur the system can be reviewed to find out the route cause ultimately creating the safest radar system on the market.
Robust and tough with a heavy-duty stainless steel radar head which is unaffected by moisture, dust, vibration, heat, cold, UV, snow, ice, high wind, water and mud.
Vt sensorvision
Specifically designed for off-highway mobile plant, this state of the art programmable radar system detects moving and stationary objects with 100% accuracy. The in-cab visual and audible alarms alert the driver of obstacles giving enough time to react. Therefore, significantly reducing the risk of collision.
Our radars have been developed using state of the art FMCW technology (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) for 100% accurate detection. Whether you require reverse or forward detection we can tailor the system to suit. The radar can be programmed with customised detection patterns tailored to suit your vehicle or application and is able to detect hazards up to 25m from the position of the radar.
VT SENSORVISION recognises objects that have entered into the programmable fields which are set up into three detection zones when an object has been detected, the driver is given three distinct warnings via in-cab visual and audible alarms that increase with intensity the closer the hazard gets to the vehicle, giving the driver ample time to react.

vms autobraking
Specifically designed for off-highway mobile plant machinery, this state of the art radar and autobraking system not only detects moving or stationary objects with 100% accuracy but will apply the brakes should the driver be distracted and not respond to the in-cab visual and audible alarms, therefore removing any risk of collision.
All our radar range has been developed using FMCW technology (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) for 100% accurate detection. Whether you require reverse or forward detection we can tailor the system to suit. The radar can be programmed with customised detection patterns tailored to suit your vehicle or application and is able to detect hazards up to 25m from the position of the radar.
VT VMS AUTOBRAKING recognises objects that have entered into the programmable fields which are set up into three detection zones, the driver is given three distinct warnings via in-cab visual and audible alarms that increase with intensity the closer the hazard gets to the vehicle, giving the driver ample time to react. Should the driver not respond to the alerts the system will automatically bring the vehicle to a controlled stop. Once autobraking has been applied should the driver need to manoeuvre closer to an object a manual over-ride button can be used, allowing additional manoeuvres to take place.
The implementation of speed and direction sensing makes unwanted and irritating false alarms a thing of the past and for full accountability, the BLB (Brake Logic Box) logs all range changes, brake activations, overrides and faults, therefore should an incident occur the system can be reviewed to find out the root cause ultimately creating the safest radar system on the market.

24GHz radar
Our 24Ghz radar uses three pre-set beam detection patterns to alert the driver of hazards entering the zones. The system incorporates in-cab visual and audible alarms alerting the driver giving them enough time to react, therefore reducing the risk of a collision. Suitable for vehicles that required longer detection than that provided by ultrasonic detection.
VT 24GHz radar comes with three prefixed fixed detection patterns
Narrow – 2.5m width – 4m length
Medium 4m width – 6.5m length
Wide – 6m width – 7m length
The system can be set to constant use or can be triggered when the reverse gear is activated.
Narrow detection zone has a 3 stage alert and medium and wide has a five-stage alert tone via an easy to read in-cab visual display giving the driver ample warning and time to react to the hazard.
This 24 Ghz radar is suitable for worldwide use across all types of vehicles, because of its compact footprint is unobtrusive and can be fitted to all types of vehicles even vehicles where previous radar units may not have been suitable
Installation times are reduced due to the plug and play connections, so downtime of your vehicles is significantly reduced, keeping your vehicles in action for longer.
