Key Customer Pain Points

The primary issues included:
● Missed debris in corner areas due to limited driver visibility.
● Poor lighting at night, reducing operational efficiency and cleaning accuracy.
● Restricted cockpit view causing safety risks in narrow streets and underground areas.
● Frequent pedestrian and electric vehicle traffic increasing collision risk.
● Lack of video evidence for accident liability and performance tracking, affecting accountability and cleaning quality.

Solution

After conducting detailed research, the STONKAM team developed a customized 360 degree panoramic camera tailored to the structure and operational characteristics of domestic sweeper vehicles. 

By installing four 360 vehicle cameras around the vehicle, the system provides a seamless bird’s-eye view on the in-car display, enabling real-time monitoring of the sweeping area and surrounding blind spots to reduce potential risks.

The 360 vehicle cameras support night vision, ensuring effective cleaning operations even under dim street lighting at night. 
Furthermore, the recording function enables full-process video capture and retention, effectively addressing the customer’s needs for driver performance evaluation and liability tracing. The system not only significantly improves operational efficiency and cleaning quality but also ensures safer and more reliable processes.

Project Outcomes

After implementation, the project demonstrated remarkable improvements in operational safety and efficiency:
● Complete Blind Spot Elimination: Drivers gained comprehensive visibility around the sweeper vehicle, drastically reducing scratches and collisions.
● Enhanced Safety: Operations in complex environments became safer, with a substantial decrease in accident risks.
● Improved Cleaning Quality: Drivers can now verify cleaning coverage in real-time, day or night, avoiding omissions and redundant work.
● Visualized Management: Project managers utilize full-process video recordings to assess driver performance and trace liabilities.

After using the system, drivers shared positive feedback: “We used to miss corners while cleaning, but now we can clearly see obstacles and debris around the brushes, making work much more efficient.”

The customer added: “Since adopting STONKAM’s 360° surround view system in 2021, our sweeper operations have become safer and more efficient. Drivers can monitor cleaning in real time and record the entire process, reducing accidents and improving quality.”
