Vehicle camera systems: 5 top tips for choosing a provider

Vehicle safety is at the top of the list of priorities for operators of vehicle fleets or heavy machinery. However, it can be time consuming and difficult to find the right camera system vendor and properly equip all vehicles with the most appropriate, user-friendly equipment. Here John Osmant, Managing Director of Brigade Elektronik GmbH, reveals his five top tips for choosing a supplier of vehicle camera systems.

Make sure the vendor can deliver the right products for your needs

Security products vary greatly depending on the vehicle and industry. Which products you choose and how they should be installed will depend on both the type of vehicle you have and the industry you are in - and suitability is critical to maintaining safety. For construction machinery, for example, you need extremely robust, resilient products such as Radar sensorsthat recognize people and objects even under the most difficult weather and environmental conditions, whether stationary or mobile.

Road vehicles such as trucks, buses, garbage trucks and delivery vans need devices that protect endangered road users in built-up areas and prevent collisions with objects or people. A 360 ° camera system like Brigade's successful Backeye®360 eliminates blind spots with the help of a display in the driver's cab that gives the driver a bird's eye view of the vehicle and its surroundings in real time.

Before you start looking for a supplier for your vehicle camera system, you should compile a list of requirements and define your search criteria. You can then use this information to decide whether the provider meets your requirements and budget. Talking to a potential provider is definitely worthwhile - it will not only help you to assess their professionalism, but above all their specialist knowledge of your industry, including relevant regulations and safety requirements.

Make sure the provider knows the rules and regulations for your industry

Laws, regulations and certifications for commercial vehicles are of great importance at all levels of the automotive industry. Whether legal regulations for motor traffic such as the Direct Vision Standard (DVS) or an industry accreditation such as the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS): A good vendor will be fully familiar with the rules, regulations, and product certifications that currently apply. He should be able to competently answer all open questions about the regulations in your sector and support you in choosing the correct products based on various criteria.

Get opinions from other customers

Customer reviews, testimonials and Case studies are always an excellent indicator of the reliability and professionalism of a provider and their vehicle camera systems. Ask to see recent reviews and, if possible, speak to existing or previous customers to find out more about their experiences with the company and its products.

Check the warranty periods and industry standards of the products

If there are certain standard requirements in your industry, you should make sure that the products are actually compliant before buying. A supplier should be able to provide you with all the relevant information about which standards each product meets and which tests it went through before it was released to the market.

Guarantees also provide valuable information about the quality of a product to be expected. At the brigade we offer guarantees for one, two, three and five years and in some cases even a lifetime guarantee.

Find out about support and after-sales service

Vendors who have confidence in the quality of their products are happy to assist you with any questions or problems after your purchase. Find out how quickly and easily you can request help in the event of a problem and what other resources the provider provides if you need support outside of regular working hours. A good provider should provide this information along with their contact details clearly visible on their website and in the brochures and always solve any problems quickly and helpful.
