ELGIN, Illinois — Elgin Sweeper announced the new Elgin DualEyes Camera system for visibility on the front right tire and front right corner of the sweeper in addition to the right-side broom. This enhanced visibility of the curbline shows any possible obstructions in the sweeper’s path.
The new DualEyes will first be available on the Elgin RegenX – a mid-dump, regenerative air sweeper that is both reliable and durable. The DualEyes system is for use when there is no right-hand steering available, so operating the sweeper from the left-hand position is possible. This helps reduce costs and chassis lead times.
“Elgin’s RegenX is known for being easy to use, and with DualEyes, that ease is increased,” said Jeff Tolzin, product engineering manager, Elgin Sweeper. “Delivering quality and proven technology is Elgin’s key focus, and DualEyes offers that enhanced technology that helps operators clean streets even more effectively.”
DualEyes can be used in bright sunlight or in darkness without any lighting. A clear color picture is available at night due to the use of Starlight Technology. The camera integrates rear-view and pickup head cameras on RegenX sweepers utilizing a 10 inch dash-mounted screen, so operators only have one central location they need to look.
Beyond increased visibility, the new DualEyes also delivers reliability. It is both waterproof and dustproof. A heavy-duty zinc casing on all cameras helps enhance durability.
“These viewing angles help Elgin customers,” said Tolzin. “DualEyes provides safe and effective operations with better visibility of traffic. From maneuvering around cars to navigating cul-de-sacs, the DualEyes helps operators productively complete the job in comfort.”
