Requests for Future Improvements with the AL Priority

[awj223]

Another request!

Any chance of having the ability to set PDC front and rear to different sensitivities? This is because that when in traffic my ALP goes off when it obviously sees its own reflected signals off the number plate of the car in front.

I actually would like the rear sensors to be set to a higher sensitivity then the front

It's not just license plates, it's any reflective surface. Unfortunately, the ALPs weren't really designed as very good parking sensors (they don't indicate a specific distance, only certain strength of returned/reflected signal). I've had the ALPs go off as parking sensors when nearly 10 feet away from chrome bumpers, and fail to activate 3 feet from other objects.

What would be the chances of ALPconnect for win10 phones?

I mean if you have a prerelease windows 10 installed on your windows phone it can load APK with a tool called APKtoWin10m.

I would have been testing this out but I updated to the release version of win10 and they removed the project Astoria feature that can run a APK for legal reasons

Exactly my experience as well!
As long s they work like sensors in the event of a roadside demo for Leo, I won't complain.

This is normal because it has to transmit a pulse and see how quickly it can catch the pulse back. More reflective objects like chrome will reflect back quicker than lets say drywall in a garage.

Doubtful, There is not enough demand to make the engineering expenses make sense at this point.

If it really worked by round trip time to determine distance the same way LIDAR guns or laser rangefinders do, this wouldn't be an issue. The only reason chrome and other reflective surfaces are an issue are because it operates based on the strength of the returned pulse rather than its timing.

Any chance AL could add the privacy/theft key activation into ALPconnect? Be a handy little feature.

Can they probably but I can tell you any new request would probably take about a year.. We already have projects scheduled for almost the entire year already.

Any secrets you can share? I'm really looking forward to the display. Can you give us a update on that?

Nothing I can share at the moment.
