Innovation: XtraVue trailer
First customer: GMC Sierra Heavy Duty
The objective of Valeo’s XtraVue Trailer is to give drivers a real-time view of what’s going on behind and to the side of the trailer they are pulling for a safer ride.
XtraVue merges the video feeds of two cameras, one positioned on the vehicle and the other on the back of the trailer. Its sophisticated software geometrically aligns the two views to effectively make the trailer transparent on the screen.
The system relies on standard camera modules and can be used with any size trailer. It also can be easily installed and integrated using a retrofit kit.
