When an object is detected in the blind spot, visual and/or auditory alerts are generated on the dashboard or mirrors. The system operates automatically during forward motion, with special emphasis on lane changes and turns. It is scalable for two-wheelers, four-wheelers, and commercial vehicles, and has been tested for reliability under various environmental and lighting conditions. The system offers a cost-effective, energy-efficient, and retrofittable solution to reduce accidents caused by blind spot hazards."
