Urban environments present unique challenges for bus drivers, with blind spots and high traffic of pedestrians and micromobility users increasing the risk of accidents. Recent data reveals that vulnerable road users (VRUs), including pedestrians and cyclists, account for nearly 70% of urban road fatality*. Gauzy’s Smart-Vision® addresses this challenge with its advanced Camera Monitor System (CMS), replacing traditional mirrors to give drivers a wider view, significantly reducing blind spots and enhancing safety.
With Smart-Vision®, drivers benefit from real-time obstacle detection and alerts, and improved visibility in all weather and light conditions. This reduces the likelihood of accidents with street furniture, vehicles, and VRUs, minimizing both collision risks and maintenance costs for operators.
As Europe strives for its Vision Zero target of eliminating road fatalities by 2050**, technologies like Smart-Vision® are helping make public transport safer and more efficient. Gauzy’s commitment to innovation is a step forward for both urban mobility and public safety.
