8229 EMX’s Drive Thru ultrasonic vehicle sensor, USVD-4X, uses patent pending triangular planar array technology to detect the presence of a vehicle and is suitable for any drive-through operation including parking. The post- or wall-mounted detection head consists of four ultrasonic transducers and an internal microprocessor-based control board and is aimed at the vehicle entrance to initiate a transaction.
