C3FT v3
Safe Passing Tool for Law Enforcement

2. Codaxus LLC
The Physics Package™ C3FT™ is a bicycle-mounted electronic system designed for the purpose of detecting, capturing, and displaying the proximity of passing vehicles
Primarily designed for law enforcement and municipalities which have or are considering safe bicycle passing laws, its accurate distance measurement can serve as the basis for driver education or citation activities. It also provides a new and powerful capability for roadway safety surveying and infrastructure planning.
C3FT™ uses a sensitive ultrasonic detector on an adjustable arm to provide a fast, reliable distance measurement on a high-brightness numeric display. Buzzer and LED indicators alert the user when a passing vehicle triggers a preset distance threshold. An external device is required for data recording and the system includes an adjustable mount for an optional video camera to document the distance display, facility layout, and traffic activity.
