STMicroelectronics AEKD-BLINDSPOT Kits

STMicroelectronics AEKD-BLINDSPOT Kits simulate the detection of a motor vehicle in regions that drivers typically can't see with mirrors. The kit works by interpreting magnetic field variations through a Hall sensor mounted on one car model that remains stationary. Magnets are mounted on another car model that moves on the conveyor belt driven by a 12V_DC gearbox motor with 40RPM and high torque. STMicroelectronics AEKD-BLINDSPOT Kit includes the car models, conveyor belt with gearbox, and other hardware. The AEKD-BLINDSPOTB1 Kit includes Evaluation Boards to drive the blind-spot demo loads.
