The main goal of this project is to design something our company can take to trade shows to do live demonstrations.

Our company, Global Sensor Systems, manufactures the only automatic reverse braking system for commercial vehicles.

We use sensor technology to detect objects in the pathway of a reversing vehicle that, when activated, trigger the truck's air brake system, ultimately stopping the vehicle before a potential collision.

We want to create an imitation system for a remote control truck. This can be determined by the students. Whether we do similar technology to our own or imitate the technology- maybe by shutting off the power of the truck when a sensor detects an object behind it (imitating it by applying the brakes)

• Understand our target market and the machines they work with

(safety officers, fleet managers, master mechanics, machine operators, municipalities)

(Front loaders, rear loaders, Automatic side loaders, roll offs, fork lifts, fire engines, sweepers)

• find a machine that can be used for the demo or create your own (Fisher Price, Hot Wheels, etc)
• come up with a smaller scale concept that imitates our current technology on commercial vehicles
• build a prototype that we can take to trade shows

We are available to support them however they need.
