LaneWatch Wins Good Housekeeping's 2013 Very Innovative Products Award
Another great
article to have in your customer waiting area/service
waiting area
and on your sales consultants work stations.
Honda's LaneWatchTM blind spot display has won a Good
Housekeeping
2013 "Very Innovative Products" (VIP) Award, the only
automotive
product to earn this distinction for 2013 and one of only
nine
innovative new product winners overall. Good Housekeeping's 2013
VIP award
winners were chosen from more than 1,500 new products
evaluated by
the scientists and engineers at the Good Housekeeping
Research
Institute during the past year in the magazine's
state-of-the-art
product-testing laboratory. Before any product can
be named a
VIP award winner, it must also pass the Research
Institute's
evaluations for performance and safety.
Debuting on
the all-new 2013 Accord, which recently achieved the
Insurance
Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) new TOP SAFETY PICK+
designation,
and now also available on the versatile 2013 Crosstour,
LaneWatch
uses a camera mounted on the passenger-side mirror to
display
real-time images of the vehicle's right-side blind spot on an
8-inch color
dashboard display. The image appears when the right turn
signal is
activated, or when a button on the end of the turn signal
stalk is
pressed.
"LaneWatch is an intuitive visibility technology that represents
the
sort of
innovation that consumers have come to expect from Honda,"
said Mike
Accavitti, vice president of National Marketing Operations,
American
Honda Motor Co., Inc. "Automotive products don't often win
Good
Housekeeping's VIP awards, and that makes it even sweeter to
have
LaneWatch listed among the best new consumer products of 2013."
The typical
field of view for a passenger-side mirror is
approximately
18 to 22 degrees, but the LaneWatch field-of-view is
about four
times greater, or approximately 80 degrees. The system
helps the
driver to see traffic, as well as pedestrians, bicycles or
other objects
in the vehicle's blind spot. To help make judging
distance
easier, the display has three reference lines. Drivers are
encouraged to
visually confirm roadway conditions prior to changing
lanes.
