The BackTracker uses ultrasonic sonar to detect objects behind your vehicle. Warning beeps let you know that there is an obstacle behind you. The beeps speed up as you get closer, allowing you to judge distances and avoid accidents. Reversing accidents range from the annoying, to the costly, to the unthinkable. But when you have a BackTracker, you back up with confidence. Parallel parking becomes a breeze, and paint scratches from backing into parking barriers become a thing of the past.

BackTracker parking sensors look like they came from with the vehicle from the factory. They are used in port-of-entry and dealer installation programs, where they must meet the exacting standards of the vehicle manufacturer.

Know When There is Something in Your Blind Spot

    We all know the feeling, every time we shift into reverse-- "am I about to hit something?!". You can fit a and entire compact car, or simply a parking post, in the blind-spot of a full-size SUV or van. So the idea is simple: use well understood sonar technology to detect objects behind your vehicle. The beeper sounds when there is an object, and the beeps get closer together when you get closer to the obstacle. This lets you know when you are approaching another car when you are parallel parking. Or, it lets you know there might be something behind you were not expecting.
Why BackTracker Offers the Best Value in Parking Sensors
    The BackTracker is manufactured in Malaysia by our strategic partner, Xenso. In Malaysia, with many narrow and crowded streets and the parking problems associated with them, 85 percent of all vehicles have parking sensors. Xenso supplies parking sensors to the Malaysian aftermarket, but more importantly to new car ("Original Equipment") makers in Malaysia and other markets.

    Why does "Original Equipment" matter? There are no particular quality standards a product has to pass to sell into the US aftermarket. It is up to the manufacturer to make the trade-offs between quality and reliability, and price. But to qualify for inclusion in original equipment programs, the BackTracker had to undergo extensive testing. This includes life, environment, electromagnetic compatibility, and rigorous ongoing quality controls. What this means to you is years of trouble-free service.

    Because Xenso makes so many parking sensors (they manufacture over a thousand every day!) they are able to produce them economically. And, because of our strategic partnership with Xenso, we import them to the US at a very low cost as well. The bottom line is that BackTracker costs only a modest amount more than the least expensive systems on the market, but with comes with a quality that makes it right at home on your brand-new $60,000 vehicle.

Innovation Matters
    When high-end European luxury cars first came out with third-generation, asymmetric sensing technology, Xenso quickly adapted that technology for the Malaysian automakers. But lest we give the impression that Xenso is just following the very best, let us point out one their own key innovations: Xenso was the first to develop zero "quiet zone" technology. To this day, many ultrasonic parking sensors are not capable of detecting an object just inches away!

    We are proud to be associated with Xenso, and proud to bring you the best value in parking sensors.


What Makes BackTracker Different
  • Latest Asymmetrical Ultrasonic Technology in our Sporty Style sensors. Wide, 160 horizontal detection angle gives even, solid coverage with minimum blind spots. Narrower vertical sensing angle means fewer false trips. Don't settle for a low-end unit with a conical sensing pattern!
  • Our Heavy Duty style sensors are great for metal bumper applications, where false-trips are a problem with many parking sensors.
  • Zero Quiet Zone -- The BackTracker can detect an object right off your bumper. Some other systems cannot sense an object if it is less than inches away!
  • Rain Filtering stable performance in all kinds of weather, will not self-trigger in heavy rain. Others do.
  • The right sensor for the application: the Sporty sensor is small, flat, and stylish. It looks good straight from the box, or can be painted (non-metallic paint only please) to match the vehicle for a sporty "original equipment" look. Our Perdana style sensors are heavy duty and look right at home on the most serious of vehicles.

 
Sporty Style Sensors Heavy Duty Style Sensors
These low-profile sensors feature asymmetric sensing technology for the widest available coverage. May be painted for a completely OE/Factory look A rugged, rubberized sensor for heavy-duty applications. The best choice for vehicles with metal bumpers, which can cause many parking sensor to false alarm. Features a conical sense pattern that works well to avoid false alarms from rear-mounted spare tires, trailer hitches, or other accessories. May NOT be painted.

    Four-Sensor ... or ... Two-Sensor ?
    4-sensor models are most popular because they offer the best coverage. An LCD display which may be installed (if choose to). The system response is tailored so that the outer sensors are restricted to to shorter ranges -- allowing great coverage with few false alarms.
    2-sensor models are perfect for compact vehicles or more cost-sensitive applications. A two sensor system costs less, and installation is less expensive because there are two fewer sensors to install. These can make a great supplement for a camera backup system, or a high-mounted system for detecting overhangs.
