Radar solutions provider bitsensing has launched an advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) kit designed to greatly improve safety and driving awareness in existing commercial vehicles, by providing an extensive range of driver warnings during vehicle operations.
The company notes commercial vehicles have always operated under conditions of heightened risk on our roadways, with drivers encountering larger blind spots, longer braking distances and frequent and unexpected interactions with pedestrians and other road users. Commercial vehicles, typically heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), are involved in 14% of all fatal road crashes in the EU (ERSO report) and 9% in the US (NHSTA report).
By fusing two critical road safety sensors – radar and cameras – the ADAS kit delivers extensive and advanced road safety warnings to drivers, including BSIS (blind spot information system), SVM (surround-view monitoring), RCW (rear collision warning), FVSA (front vehicle start alert), FCW (forward collision warning) and MOIS (moving-off information system). As such, it supports drivers during driving, maneuvering, and stationary scenarios. The product is being sold as an aftermarket ADAS solution that can be easily installed and scaled into existing vehicles to aid fleet management.
The kit supports key United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) regulations, including R151 (BSIS) and R159 (MOIS), ensuring compliance with international safety standards for commercial vehicles. Both regulations are part of UNECE safety standards enforced in Europe for large vehicles. The company says the kit features a retrofit-ready architecture, meaning it can be quickly and simply installed, with minimum maintenance subsequently required, resulting in no disruption to commercial fleet operations.
In November 2025, as a soft launch of its ADAS kit, bitsensing announced a collaboration with Koreawide Express Group, a major South Korean transportation company. The initiative begun by installing bitsensing’s ADAS kit in Koreawide’s fleet, intercity, and city buses in real road environments, with plans to expand the system to more than 500 buses. The pilot operation is currently taking place on routes in downtown Daegu, with a population of 2,300,000 residents.
“Commercial vehicles operate in some of the most demanding road environments, yet many fleets still lack access to modern driver warning systems,” said Dr Jae-Eun Lee, CEO of bitsensing. “The ADAS kit was developed to close that gap, delivering a complete, system-level ADAS solution that can be deployed on existing vehicles without redesigning the vehicle platform. By integrating radar, camera and proven ADAS software, we are making advanced safety warnings more accessible, practical and scalable for real-world fleet management operations.”
