The 'Around View' system synthesizes footage from cameras attached to the front, rear, left, and right sides of the vehicle, allowing real-time monitoring of the vehicle's surroundings from a 360-degree bird's-eye perspective. It is also equipped with an automatic video recording feature, similar to a black box. The equipment has been installed on all 19 large cleaning vehicles owned by the city, including road sweepers and high-pressure water spray trucks.


The city expects that the installation of this system will reduce not only the risk of collisions that may occur when cleaning vehicles operate on narrow roads, but also the risk of accidents during general road travel. In particular, it is anticipated that the working environment for sanitation workers who drive these vehicles will be improved, providing safer working conditions.



A city official stated, "With the installation of the Around View system, cleaning workers can now work in a safer environment," and added, "We will continue to do our best to create a clean and pleasant urban environment."
