Product Features
HALO® Safety System
SM UK’s HALO® system protects vulnerable road users during vehicle turns, using visual warnings, cameras, sensors, and alerts to reduce collision risks and enhance road safety.
Enhanced Illumination
The HALO® system lights up the truck’s nearside, helping vulnerable road users see turns clearly and improving safety in noisy or language-diverse settings.
Visual Warning Technology
HALO® uses amber LED lights to project a ground ‘Halo’ that signals nearby road users of an upcoming turn, activating with vehicle indicators at low speeds to boost safety.
User-Centric Design
The HALO® system fosters safer road interactions with a clear visual warning, enhancing communication between vehicles and vulnerable road users when audible alerts may be insufficient.
HALO® reduces collisions. Enhancing safety for drivers and VRUs alike.
High-intensity LED lights create an amber ‘Halo’ on the ground when the vehicle indicates a turn, activated at low speeds to ensure VRUs are alerted even in noisy or language-challenged environments.

What is the HALO® system?
The HALO® system is an innovative safety solution developed by SM UK that provides visual warnings to vulnerable road users (VRUs) when a vehicle is turning. It combines high-intensity LED lights with BRIGADE cameras and sensors to significantly reduce the risk of collisions.
How does HALO® enhance safety for vulnerable road users?
HALO® enhances safety by projecting an amber ‘Halo’ on the ground in unison with vehicle indicators, alerting nearby VRUs such as cyclists and pedestrians when the vehicle is about to turn. This visual warning is particularly effective in noisy environments where audible alerts may not be heard.
What types of vehicles can use the HALO® system?
The HALO® system is designed for a wide range of vehicles, especially larger ones like trucks and commercial fleets, where the risk to vulnerable road users is greater. It is particularly beneficial in urban areas with heavy pedestrian and cyclist traffic.
How does HALO® activate?
HALO® activates the amber ‘Halo’ lights at low speeds, synchronised with the vehicle’s indicators. This ensures that the visual warning is displayed precisely when it is needed most, helping to communicate the vehicle’s intentions to those nearby.
