The South Korean giant has introduced a see-through 'Safety Truck' that consists of a wireless camera attached to the front of the truck, which is connected to a video wall made out of four exterior monitors located on the back of the truck. The monitors give drivers behind the truck a view of what is going on ahead, even in the dark of night.
Samsung gets in not only to make driving easier for people on single-lane highways, but also to help avoid accidents that happen because of overtaking.
This allows drivers to have a better view when deciding whether it is safe to overtake. Also, it may help reduce the risk of accidents caused by sudden braking or animals crossing the road.
Currently, the prototype truck built is not operational. So far, Samsung has been able to confirm that the technology works and that this idea can definitely save the lives of many people.
According to Samsung, the next step is to perform the corresponding tests in order to comply with the existing national protocols and obtain the necessary permits and approvals.
