TruckOn Photo Gallery - Demonstration Day

TruckOn LogoBelow are photos taken from the TruckOn 'Demonstration Day' on 8th July, 2010. 

The TruckOn team provided a live demonstation of the sytem using a Mitsuibishi Fuso truck to RTA, industry and government stakeholders. 

Drivers may not know the height of their truck, particularly if the height is determined by the load or a fitted crane.  An unstowed crane is a common cause of over-height vehicle collisions.  The truck we used for the demonstration had such a crane mounted at its rear.  We set up the system such that when the crane was not properly lowered and stowed, the crane arm triggered the over-height detector. 

Our guests took turns to ride in the truck and experience the system in action directly.  Meanwhile, remaining onlookers heard the in-cabin audio warnings which were wirelessly relayed to road-side speakers.
