Main Technical Index of Reversing Radar Detection

Every vehicle has a rear-view mirror, however,there always exist the blind area so that bump and scratching to a vehicle happens occasionally. A suitable reversing radar can help owners solve such a big headache.

Installing reversing radar can improve the safety of backing a car.


The reversing radar with 2-4 probes installed on the rear bumper of the car, while the
reversing radar with 6-8 probes is usually installed as 2 in the front and 4 at the back,
or 4 in the front and 4 at the back. Generally speaking, the number of probes determine the detecting ability of a reversing radar, i.e. the more probes, the less blind area .The
reversing radar which have more than six probes can detect the front left, right corner
when reversing.

Reversing radar now available in the market mostly make use of the ultrasonic signal to detect obstacles behind the car, by processing of microcomputer, figuring out the azimuth of the obstacle and the distance between bus and obstacle and sending them to display. Then it will remind the driver to be careful of the rear obstacles through the digital display and the audio warning of different frequencies. Generally, when the car enters the "R" gear and reversing light is illuminated, the radar system will be automatically booted into the reversing status.

The more probes are ,the stronger detectivity is.

2 probes, 3 probes, 4 probes, 6 probes and 8 probes reversing radars were now available in the market reversing radar.

Full-featured reversing radar should have functions like distance indication, audible alarm,
bearing indication etc.

Basic detective range is between 1.5 to 3 m., however, please note that although the
ranges labeled in the instructions are nearly the same, the reversing radar of some brands will somehow bring some trouble to the drivers’ judgment and measures taken because
its low sensitivity and limited detection range. Choose product with high reputation is
necessary.

Wired reversing radar is mainstream

Reversing radar is mainly built-in installed, that is, installing the probe on the bumper by the way of opening pore. While at the beginning of the product appears, the probe was sticked to the bumper directly. It not in use any more because it does not look good. Reversing radar are usually installed by technicians in the automotive supplies stores, and charge subject to different models of vehicles.

Reversing radar can be divided into wired type and wireless type. It is reported that the wireless parking sensor has the same function with wired reversing radar. Compared with wired reversing radar, the host and display of wireless parking sensor are connected with wireless communicating technology to avoid the demolition of car interior.

However, wireless parking sensor has not popularized yet, because it could be influenced
by some radio like phone signal, FM ,which will affect them function normally. There is no much difference in price between wireless parking sensor and wired reversing radar.

Tips: If car owners install the parking sensor by themselves, you must shut off the engine before installing ultrasonic detector. After that, the installation testing of the ultrasonic detector should be 90% accessible, otherwise it will affect the detected results and generate false alarms.
