Durite, a major expert in vehicle safety and lighting, Low Bridge Detection Systems, and auto electrical systems, has launched its state of art AI Low Bridge Detection System at the Road Transport Expo 2024, taking place between June 24-26 at Stoneleigh. This is a new generation of innovation in safety that utilizes the capabilities of artificial intelligence technology, sophisticated cameras, and GPS to anticipate beforehand the presence of low bridges and warn a driver of a high-probability crash situation. In a bid to help curb bridge strikes, enhance road safety as well as lessen bars of operations time, the Durite company is pushing a step further to safeguard the UK commercial vehicle fleet.

The new system solves one of the most ancient problems that is the curse of the UK transport and logistics industries. The heavy goods vehicle (HGV) bridge strike is an expensive and unsafe issue. Harnessing the power of AI together with real-time data, Durite help provide drivers with the opportunity to get the appropriate warning in real-time. This allows them to take the necessary corrective measures before dangerous and, in many cases, costly collisions can occur.

The Low Bridge Detection System furnished by Durite incorporates intelligent AI-enabled cameras that detect obstacles overhead with a 10Hz high-precision GPS module, combined with the most current low bridge database. The system has the ability to take into account the trailer and cargo height of an electric vehicle, hence giving the driver accurate, timely warning in real time so they have ample time to switch lanes and avoid dangerous situations. In contrast to the systems based only on GPS, which tend to fail in rural or urban areas due to interferences of trees or tall constructions, the hybrid AI-GPS issue promises the highest adequate performance and reliability regardless of the complicated conditions.

Durite is considering adding more capabilities to its AI detection platform, including using cloud-based analytics and predictive maintenance services. This provides fleet managers with valuable insights into how drivers operate, what risks they have, as well as how efficient their operations are. There is also a possibility of introducing navigation software providers to work with in the future, which is proactively safe for advanced electric vehicle technologies.
