Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
A system that alerts drivers to vehicles in adjacent lanes.
BSM uses radar sensors on the rear corners to detect vehicles in blind zones. Alerts appear as warning lights on side mirrors or audio tones. The system enhances safety during lane changes. Proper radar alignment ensures accurate detection. Regular cleaning of sensor areas maintains optimal performance. BSM reduces collisions caused by unseen vehicles.
