ProFleet Assist⁺ wins in the category of retrofittable turning assistants

The readership of Germany’s most wide-reaching commercial vehicle magazine has crowned for the second time the ProFleet Assist+ from Knorr-Bremse TruckServices as the winner of the retrofittable turning assistant category. A clear decision for safety.

Turning to the right and keeping too little distance to the front vehicle are two major areas leading to traffic accidents. The retrofittable ProFleet Assist+ Gen 2 helps minimize these risks. With their decision to choose Knorr-Bremse TruckServices as the best brand in the “Retrofittable Turning Assistant” category, the readers of ETM Verlag – “trans aktuell,” “lastauto omnibus” and “Fernfahrer” – have now confirmed for the second time TruckService's excellent performance in this area. At the same time, they have chosen for the 17th time Knorr-Bremse as number 1 in the ”Brakes” category.

Artificial intelligence for safety

ProFleet Assist+ Gen 2 uses advanced artificial intelligence processes to reliably differentiate between pedestrians, cyclists, and other objects on the road. It is important to not only detect the presence of other road users, but also to quickly and reliably determine whether a collision is about to occur. ProFleet Assist+ Gen 2 can reliably differentiate between both situations and quickly issue appropriate warning to the drivers – even in poor lighting conditions.

Clear view of the situation beside the vehicle

The side cameras of the ProFleet Assist+ Gen 2 ensure that drivers have a clear view of the danger zone while turning – known as the blind spot. The display attached to the side, which is optimally located in the driver's field of view while turning, clearly indicates potential hazards.

The second generation of the retrofittable turning assistant offers also a new connectivity function: In addition to a GPS receiver, the front camera has an integrated communication module. Updates and new functions can be uploaded over-the-air to the device .

Overall, the ProFleet Assist+ Gen 2 offers many arguments for selecting Knorr-Bremse TruckServices as the best brand in this category. See for yourself.

Reasons to choose the ProFleet Assist⁺ Gen 2:

  • AI-based detection and collision warning, for pedestrians and cyclists in the danger zone in front of or beside the vehicle
  • Headway monitoring
  • Lane departure warning system
  • Traffic sign recognition
