View of a city bus’ interior looking through the windshield onto a city street. The driver is sitting on the left behind the steering wheel. There is a camera monitor system mounted on the A-columns with two monitors on the right side and one on the left side. The monitors show what is happening around the bus from different angles.

Discover our ProViu® Mirror Camera Monitor System

Bus drivers and other commercial vehicle operators need good visibility of what is going on around their vehicles. In the rain or sunshine, in the dark or during the day, when pulling up at busy bus stops or reversing with overhanging trailers. And especially the blind spots give all road users a headache. The camera monitor system ProViu® Mirror with its purely digital, one-camera system can perfectly substitute the classic wing mirror classes II/IV/V and VI with homogenous images in HD quality and ensures perfect visibility and increased safety at all times.

ProViu® Mirror does not just improve blind spot detection and all-around visibility, but is especially geared towards increasing vision in wet and dark conditions without having to worry about dirty or stained mirrors. It even suppresses high beam lights at nights, easing the strain on drivers’ eyes.

As a the first purely digital camera monitor system using the LDVS technology, ProViu can achieve a high frame rate and image resolution and therefore also accommodate driver assistant features like reverse mode, turn assist or distance lines.

Furthermore, drivers can enjoy reduced of ownership since repair costs are low and the lack of a physical wing mirror on the vehicle’s outside with better aerodynamics leads to better fuel efficiency and less noise.

Additional functions

During night, the display image will be brightened up by the camera monitor system.

Monitor image of a traffic situation. The upper part shows the situation as is, with the front par being very dark and some lights in the distance. The lower part show the same situation but with the image altered by the camera monitor system. The front is much brighter and you can detect a parking car that wasn’t visible beforehand.

The camera monitor system automatically adjusts the screen brightness based on ambient brightness detected by light sensing. The driver can adjust base brightness level to his liking.

In scenarios with strong lights or back lights, the camera monitor system is able to highlight bright and dark parts while retaining detail.

A traffic situation at night as viewed from the rear windo of a car. In the upper part, all details including a car with bright headlights can be seen easily. In the lower part, the same situation is depicted much darker, with the details disappearing and only the bright headlights visible.

The camera monitor system suppresses LED flicker to ensure image clarity.

The display range can be adjusted through the buttons to meet the different needs of users.

When receiving a reverse signal, the camera monitor system’s image extends downwards to improve parking visibility and show park assist line.

When receiving a turn signal, the camera monitor system automatically expands the field of vision on the turning side and the camera turn signal lights up automatically.

The view of a truck’s wing mirror from two different angles. The street is wet and there is another truck driving on the next lane. The camera monitor system marks the oncoming truck with lines to alert the driver in case he wants to make a turn.

A BSIS or Blindspot detection can be send by CAN to the camera monitor system and will be displayed on the driver monitors.

The view of a monitor mounted on the A column of a commercial vehicle. The monitor shows the scene right next to the vehicle, usually the blind spot. The image shows a cyclist from two different angles. To the front, there is a red bike line and a bus stop.

The camera module is equipped with a built-in heating pad to reduce the impact of rainy, icy, and snowy environments on the image

View of two different driver points of view of a cyclist riding his bike next to a commercial vehicle. One depiction is slightly distorted, the other one has been adjusted for better view.

For us, it is essential to give drivers of large and expansive vehicles a better overall view of their surroundings and to eliminate the many blind spots.
