Smarter safety for faster port environments

Four HD cameras with artificial intelligence monitor the full environment around the vehicle, automatically detect people, and alert the driver in real-time. Prevent incidents before they happen, without slowing down operations.

Already in use at leading fleet operators across Europe.

Why mirrors and standard cameras fall short in ports.

In a port, the environment changes constantly. Containers, vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists all move through the same space at the same time. Drivers often have only seconds to assess their surroundings and react safely, especially during manoeuvring and reversing operations.

The impact of limited visibility can affect the entire operation. Personal injury, vehicle damage, downtime, insurance claims and disruption to site activity all place pressure on productivity, safety performance and reputation. Even a low-speed incident can lead to delays and operational costs across the wider port environment.

Standard camera systems improve visibility, but they still rely on the driver continuously monitoring multiple views while manoeuvring, unloading and communicating with workers on site. In busy port operations, this creates a high level of cognitive demand at the exact moment when rapid decision-making is most important.

Even highly experienced drivers face blind spots that cannot be eliminated through mirrors alone. Many heavy commercial vehicle incidents occur during low-speed manoeuvres where visibility is restricted. In complex port environments, improving awareness is not simply about driver skill. It is about giving operators the technology and visibility support needed to work more safely and confidently around people, vehicles and infrastructure.

Backeye®360 AI: The System That Sees What Mirrors Miss

Backeye®360 AI combines four HD cameras, artificial intelligence and a real-time bird’s-eye view to give drivers a complete view around the vehicle. Designed for demanding environments such as ports, logistics hubs and industrial sites, the system helps operators manoeuvre more safely by improving awareness of people and hazards around the vehicle.

AI Person Detection

Integrated artificial intelligence recognises people within the vehicle’s predefined detection zone and alerts the driver visually and audibly when someone is nearby. The system is designed to focus on genuine risks, helping to reduce unnecessary alerts and support faster driver response in busy operational environments.

Real-Time 360° Visibility

Four HD cameras work together to create a seamless top-down image of the vehicle and its surroundings. Drivers can monitor blind spots in a single view while switching between multiple display modes depending on the manoeuvre or operating environment. This supports safer low-speed movement in confined or high-traffic areas.

Fast Installation Across Fleets

Backeye®360 AI is designed for efficient installation and calibration. Once configured, settings can be replicated across identical vehicles, helping operators standardise safety technology and reduce installation time when deploying systems across larger fleets.

HD Recording for Incident Review

The system can connect to Brigade MDR recorders to capture all four camera feeds in HD. Recorded footage supports incident investigation, insurance claims and internal safety reviews, while also helping fleets improve operational visibility and accountability over time.

Avantajlar

Why smart port operators choose Backeye®360 AI.

Masaüstü Aqua Simgesi

Fewer incidents, less downtime

Active warnings prevent collisions before they happen. A single prevented incident often pays back more than the full investment in the system. The fleet stays available, deadlines are met.

Lower liability risks

Complete HD recordings provide objective evidence for damage claims and disputed incidents. Insurers, clients, and authorities receive facts instead of witness statements.

Frequently asked questions from fleet managers

Which vehicles is Backeye®360 AI suitable for?

The system works on virtually all port-related vehicles, including reachstackers, forklift trucks, terminal tractors, cranes (RTG and STS), Ro-Ro vehicles, and heavy commercial vehicles. During the advisory call, we determine together which configuration fits your fleet.

How long does installation take?

A standard installation on a single vehicle is usually completed within one working day. For identical vehicles in the same fleet, the configuration can be transferred, which significantly speeds up rollout.

Does the system also detect cyclists and pedestrians?

Yes. The AI is trained to recognise people in various postures, including cyclists, pedestrians, and personnel in work clothing. The system distinguishes between people and objects and so avoids false alerts.

Can the system be combined with our existing technology?

Yes. Backeye®360 AI is compatible with Brigade HD monitors, MDR recorders, and other products in the Brigade ecosystem. During the advisory call, we look at how integration works best.

Are images stored for evidence?

Yes. All four camera feeds can be recorded in HD on an external Brigade MDR recorder. The recordings can be used for incident analysis, damage claims, and internal evaluations.

How much does the system cost?

The investment depends on vehicle type, number of vehicles, and desired configuration. During the free advisory call, we prepare a quote that fits your situation and fleet.
