Backsense® Radar On-Screen Display
Radar detection and camera vision combined on one in-cab screen. Built for the demanding safety challenges of construction and mining vehicles.

One clear, trusted view
Instead of separate radar and camera displays competing for the driver's attention, the On-Screen Display brings both detection technologies into a single view, reducing cognitive load and supporting safer, more confident decisions in high-risk environments.
Unified warning display
Radar alerts are overlaid directly on the camera image, so the driver sees the hazard and its location at a glance.
Reduces in-cab distraction
Fewer screens means less to monitor. Critical safety information is consolidated in one place.
Built for construction and mining
IP69K radar sensors and a −40 to +85 °C operating range for the harshest site conditions.
5-stage audible & visual alerts
Graduated warnings tell the driver not just that something is there, but how close it is.
Backeye®360 compatible
Works with Brigade's Backeye®360 camera system (360° view only) for complete surround awareness.
AI pedestrian detection ready
Compatible with AI HFR camera systems to improve pedestrian detection performance.

How it works
Radar sensors scan the danger zone
77 GHz Backsense® radar detects obstacles within a programmable danger zone around the vehicle.
Cameras provide the visual
Up to three AHD or CVBS cameras feed the OSD radar ECU.
The driver sees one combined view
Detection zones and warnings are overlaid on screen, with audible alerts that intensify as an object gets closer.
Adaptive Detection upgrade
Add the optional GPS module (MDR-ANT-GPS-03) and the detection area adjusts automatically with vehicle speed, helping maintain appropriate braking distances as operating conditions change.
