Invisible car parking sensor - Hidden protection against accidents

When parking in unfamiliar places there are chances that you can bump to other cars and objects that may cause dents on your car’s body. For worse, there is a chance for the child stepping out behind you to cross the road while you are going to reverse. With the parking sensors, it is much easier and safer to drive. These sophisticated devices are safe and they pay for themselves within a short period. An invisible car parking sensor is now available as factory-fitted item for some vehicles. However, invisible car parking sensors are also available that can be installed on your present vehicle. The sensors are fitted in the front and rear of the vehicles and they measure the proximity of objects to the vehicle and produce an audible warning as you drive closer to them.

Invisible electromagnetic parking sensors

Increasing cases of theft has lead to the emergence of invisible car parking sensors. Latest Electromagnetic Parking Sensor (EPS) system is completely concealed by sticking the strip sensor on the inner surface of the bumper. The system consists of acoustic alert unit, strip aluminum sensor and control module. Appearance of the bumper doesn’t change after installation of the parking sensor. It offers total protection to the back of the vehicle avoiding any blind spot close to the bumper.     

On applying the reverse gear, the parking system is automatically activated. An electromagnetic field is automatically generated by the strip sensor. As an obstacle enters the electromagnetic field, the field is perturbed which results in a change in relation to the distance of the obstacle.  This perturbation gets detected at a distance of eighty centimeters ahead of bumper. This is transformed into an acoustic signal that increases as the obstacle gets closer. Actually it is a proximity sensor, which is automatically activated with the insertion of the back gear. 

The EPS has been pioneered in the market to reproduce a completely new system with a flexible metallic strip hidden INSIDE the bumper. The most unique feature of the parking sensor is that it is completely invisible from outside when installed. The object near the bumper of the car is picked by the EPS parking sensor. The field of the sensor is not dependent on two or four sensors; rather it covers the whole length of the bumper. Therefore, these systems don’t miss any area like the normal ultrasonic systems.

Unlike the visible oval or round sensors drilled into the bumper, which spoils glamour of today’s prestige cars, these sophisticated devices are perfectly concealed. Further, as the electronic control unit of EPS is very compact (almost the size of a cigarette pack) they can be comfortably installed in the baggage compartment of the car. Additionally, since the parking sensor is invisible and installed inside the bumper, it has lesser risk of damaged.
 
Merits of the electromagnetic parking sensors

• These can be easily concealed during installation and doesn’t modify the vehicle appearance. 
• It gets activated automatically on engaging the reverse gear
• The detection range of the device starts from 0.8m approximately
• Acoustic signal becomes strong as the object gets closer
• The device guarantees better and more efficient maneuvering during the parking operation  

An invisible parking sensor could be your best purchase; it would not only prevent an accident but also save a life. Moreover, it improves the security of your vehicle and you can park it with no one required to watch.
