• Parking sensors are a great addition to any car.
  They can really make a lot of difference to your
  driving experience, particularly if youre a
  somewhat nervous driver (or parker, to be
  precise). Its important that you understand how
  to choose the right parking sensor for your
  requirements, and we are going to teach you how
  to do this during the course of this article.
•  
• The BrandThe first thing that you should do is
  research various brands. Stick with the known
  brands, because while they aren't necessarily
  better than non-branded versions, you do have a
  certain guarantee that they at least work well
  enough. Brands would quickly lose their
  reputation if they sold us dud products.
• The Type of VehicleThis is the first thing to
  consider. You need to buy the correct kit for the
  car. Some sensors are suited to specific
  vehicles, while others are suited to other types
  of vehicle. For example, a bullet sensor for
  placement in the bumper is suitable for a car,
  but it is NOT suitable for a van. This is because
  the sensor does not have much length when placed
  at bumper level, and a van has a much greater
  length in its blind spot than a car has.

Another example is that some sensors, such as
ultrasonic, cannot sense past objects like tow
bars. If you have a tow bar, you would not use an
ultrasonic sensor. Instead, you would use an
electromagnetic sensor.   Ultrasonic
Electromagnetic Sensors These are the two key
differences between the various reversing sensors
on the market. Theyre easy to understand
  Ultrasonic these send out soundwaves and then
take measurements of how long it takes the sound
waves to bounce back. They bounce back when they
hit an object. The sooner the bounce back, the
closer the object is to the car. As the object
approaches, they emit a beep the closer the
object, the faster the beeps.

• Electromagnetic this creates an electromagnetic
  umbrella over the car. It senses when objects
  come close or enter the umbrella. These are good
  because you can use them with vehicles that have
  added extras, such as the tow bar or a trailer
  you simply set the umbrella further away.
•  
• The majority of reversing sensors, whether
  ultrasonic or electromagnetic, now come with a
  display that gives you the measurement of how far
  the closet object is from the car. For example,
  it can tell you if its 1, 2, or 3 meters away.
  This allows you to park with great precision.
•  
• Parking sensors are a great addition for any
  vehicle as they make you a safer driver. They can
  also have additional benefits, such as reducing
  your car insurance premiums.
