2268 MHQ is now offering customers the Code 3 Defender Lightbar, specially developed for police and public safety vehicles. According to the company, two of the most crucial attributes of a good police lightbar are visibility and brightness. The Code 3 Defender Lightbar delivers on this front, thanks to the revolutionary TriCore technology.

This patent-pending technology ensures that the Defender's light is two times brighter than traditional LEDs or halogens, ensuring that it is clearly visible on the sunniest of days and darkest of nights. The device also boasts improved circuitry and an improved lens design, and is available in several different lengths, from 23 to 94in, and can be easily mounted to many different types of vehicle.

    Jason Barnes looks at Daimler’s Intelligent Drive programme to consider how machine vision has advanced the state of the art of vision-based in-vehicle systems. Traditionally, radar was the in-vehicle Driver Assistance System (DAS) technology of choice, particularly for applications such as adaptive cruise control and pre-crash warning generation.
