Autel Turn Assist

Autel ATS100 Turn Assist — Blind-Spot Safety System for Commercial Vehicles

The Autel ATS100 is a radar-based turn-assist safety system designed for large commercial vehicles including trucks, buses, trailers, and tractors. It provides 180-degree detection coverage on one side of the vehicle with no blind spots, and can alert drivers to pedestrians and cyclists within an 80x7 meter detection zone. The system supports both acoustic and visual warnings, and can be configured to provide active automatic braking.

What Problem This Solves

Right-turn and low-speed blind-spot collisions involving large commercial vehicles and vulnerable road users (VRUs) — pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists — are a significant cause of fatalities in fleet operations. The ATS100 addresses this directly with a radar-plus-display integrated solution that monitors the blind zone during turns and warns the driver before a collision can occur.

Detection Capabilities

• 180-degree field of view (FOV) on one side — no blind spots within the coverage arc
• Detection range for vulnerable road users (VRUs): 80 x 7 meters
• Tracks multiple targets simultaneously
• Works under partial obstruction — can detect and track targets even when obscured by parked vehicles or trees
• Target classification: distinguishes between motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles (pedestrians, cyclists)

Warning System

When the vehicle is turning, the ATS100 calculates collision probability based on the speed and relative position of detected targets, then delivers graded warnings:

• Medium warning: Target detected in risk zone, collision probability elevated
• High warning: Imminent collision risk — both acoustic (audible alarm) and visual (display alert) warnings fire simultaneously
• Warning scenarios covered: vehicles or pedestrians approaching from behind at 3–30 km/h; vehicles or pedestrians approaching from ahead at 3–30 km/h

Active Braking Option

The ATS100 can be configured to perform automatic braking intervention. This function is demand-based — it can be activated according to fleet operator requirements and applicable regulations.

Compliance

The ATS100 is designed to meet European safety standards and is certified to UN ECE R151 — the United Nations regulation governing blind spot information systems (BSIS) for heavy commercial vehicles. This certification matters for fleets operating in regulated markets or seeking to meet European fleet safety requirements.

Installation and Integration

• Auto-alignment — simplifies installation and reduces setup time
• Highly integrated solution: radar and display are combined, no additional ECU required
• Compatible with: commercial vehicles, buses, trucks, trailers, tractors
• Available with or without GPS (two separate user manuals available for download)

Who Buys the ATS100

Fleet operators, truck body upfitters, and commercial vehicle dealers who need to add turn-assist safety compliance to vehicles. Also relevant for municipalities with bus fleets, construction fleets, and agricultural vehicle operators. The ATS100 is a hardware safety system — it is not a diagnostic tool — so it is sold to fleets and vehicle operators rather than general repair shops.
