SmartSensor by Amigo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

SmartSensor by Amigo is an impact avoidance system added to select Amigo power operated vehicles. The technology used is similar to that of a television's remote control. By measuring the distance of an obstacle in front of the Amigo power operated vehicle, the SmartSensor sets the speed of the Amigo to a safe level. Distances are measured from 60 inches to approximately 20 inches slowing the Amigo at a gradual rate. At 20 inches or less the Amigo slows at a much faster rate to exert reduced force on an approaching obstruction. The SmartSensor by Amigo is primarily used in retirement villages and independent living environments.
