ABSTRACT:
A large vehicle blind spot monitor is provided including a vehicle having a rear face, a front face, and an interior driver compartment with a steering wheel and dashboard. At least one camera unit includes a camera for generating a real time continues video image only during the actuation thereof. Associated therewith is a detector for generating an activation signal only upon the detection of a person. At least one screen is mounted to the dash of the vehicle and connected to the camera unit for displaying the video image upon the receipt thereof. An alarm is provided for generating an alarm upon the receipt of the activation signal. Finally, a control mechanism is adapted to transmit the activation signal to the alarm upon the receipt thereof and further actuate each camera unit only upon the receipt of the activation signal from the camera unit thus allowing a driver to view a blindspot.
