Warns you of approaching emergency services
such as marked and unmarked police cars, ambulances and fire engines
Target Blu Eye is a unique and worldwide patented traffic safety system that warns you in advance of approaching emergency service vehicles. In the UK all the emergency services use Tetra radios and Target Blu Eye will let you know when they are close come day or night. So whilst driving at night, even if the emergency vehicle is not using their lights or sirens, Target Blue will alert you of their presence up to a kilometre radius.
Target Blu Eye uses both visual and audible warnings to let you know what’s out there. Within seconds of an emergency vehicle being in the radius, the signal will be activated and the signal strength meter in your vehicle will give you enough warning allowing you move safely out of the way.
how does it work?
Target Blu Eye is based on TETRA technology, in the UK it is known as the Airwave Network which is widely used for the communication between different emergency services. Due to this highly advanced technology, Target Blu Eye is able to warn you in advance of approaching emergency services, such as:

No, because, emergency services use different frequencies. Therefore Target Blu Eye does not recognize signals for civil use.
The detection range of Target Blu Eye varies from hundreds of metres to approximately one kilometre. The range also depends on the selected sensitivity mode and the environment as well as the type and location of the antenna.
All signals transmitted by emergency services will be detected by the Target Blu Eye. However, emergency services do not always transmit (periodical) signals. The Tetra radio can be switched off or be in direct mode (DMO).
