Product Description

The PreView® VideoLink is a device used to integrate a PreView Object Detection 

sensor with a blind spot camera system. The PreView VideoLink uses the blind 

spot camera’s monitor to display PreView distance information to the vehicle 

operator.

The VideoLink consolidates the displayed information into a common point of 

focus for the operator rather than forcing the operator to monitor multiple devices 

in the vehicle cab. This is achieved by replacing the PreView display with the 

VideoLink component, where the visual alert and ranging information from the 

PreView sensor (or sensors) is modulated right onto the existing video monitor, 

sharing the resulting video image on a single monitor.

During times when no object is present, the VideoLink graphic information is static 

and unobtrusive. Conversely, during times when an object is present, the active 

alert of the PreView VideoLink draws the operator’s attention to the monitor using 

a combination of a dynamic graphics display as well as audible tones, where the 

standard PreView system object warning tones are also modulated right onto 

the existing video monitor, sharing the camera audio sound (if so equipped). The 

information is positioned for minimal interference with the camera image and the 

standard five-zone PreView display format is preserved.

The VideoLink reduces installation time, installation costs, and dash clutter when 

installing a PreView Object Detection system on vehicles.

The PreView VideoLink consists of three major components: an environmentally 

sealed housing containing the electronics, a cable that interfaces to the camera 

and monitor, and an interface cable to the PreView radar sensors. The PreView 

VideoLink can be used with many different manufacturers of camera systems. All 

that is required is the proper camera interface cable.
