Meritor WABCO announced that it has launched the OnGuardTM collision mitigation system for medium trucks , setting another industry first.
WABCO Launches Midsize Truck OnGuardTM Collision Mitigation System
Since 2007, OnGuardTM has been widely used in heavy trucks and has always been a leader in the North American market. At present, the number of trucks equipped with this collision mitigation system has exceeded 90,000 and their total mileage on the road The number reached more than 32 billion miles. According to Stephen Hampson, president and general manager of Meritor Wieberg, more than 200 teams are using the system to provide safety for truck drivers and fellow passengers.
OnGuardTM is an active safety system for commercial vehicles. It is based on radar technology and uses active braking and adaptive cruise control to achieve collision warning and collision mitigation. The OnGuardTM collision mitigation system can detect the object in front and measure the position of the vehicle relative to other vehicles on the road and alert the driver in the form of audible, visual, and tactile signals before a rear-end collision may occur. This system is kept in working condition all the time, even if the cruise control is not set, the road condition can be monitored, and if necessary, an early warning and active braking can be implemented. Once the driving situation is found to be potentially dangerous, the OnGuardTM collision mitigation system responds in a timely manner. Response methods include issuing alarms, automatically reducing engine torque, and implementing basic braking.
A prominent feature of the OnGuardTM collision mitigation system is the ability to “see†the surroundings in conditions of limited vision, thanks to the use of high-quality, long-range radar with best-in-class performance. According to statistics made by the Federal Automobile Transportation Safety Administration of the United States, about 12% of traffic accidents involving heavy trucks from 2013 to 2015 occurred when the driver’s vision was limited, and these incidents caused Personnel deaths account for 20% of the total deaths from heavy truck accidents.
"The use of the OnGuardTM collision mitigation system in medium trucks allows medium-sized truck fleets to earn the same benefits as the truck fleet. This means reducing the incidence of truck rear-end collisions and the resulting damage to vehicles and costs. It can also reduce casualties. And save more lives." Stephen Hampson said that mid-sized trucks have annual sales equivalent to about 40% of annual sales of heavy trucks. Since the OnGuardTM system was adopted, the accident rate reported by each heavy truck fleet has dropped by 65% ​​to 85%. , And the cost of accidents was reduced by 89%.
Stephen Hampson also revealed that in 2016 a new member for both medium and heavy trucks will join the OnGuardTM product family, which is the OnGuardACTIVE system. It can detect stationary objects in time and send alarms and brakes to reduce or even avoid potential collisions. In addition, OnGuardTM is designed for use with Meritor WABCO's ProView fleet performance management system. With its ability to trigger video capture, OnGuardTM can send video information to the ProView system, which can be used for driver training or industry-leading accident reconstruction video analysis.
