parking sensors

Proximity warning system

Parking sensors are devices on vehicles that detect nearby obstacles and alert the driver, typically through beeping sounds that increase in frequency as objects get closer.

They're mounted in bumpers and use ultrasonic or electromagnetic technology to measure distance.

The parking sensors started screaming before I even saw the post.
