8. SAFETY AND RISK

8.1 Note and Scope of Responsibility

This section specifies practices the user should adhere to and the risks operators should

recognize when operating the Oculii Eagle sensor. This device should only be handled by

technical operators with basic technical knowledge. The owner of the sensor module is

responsible for the device and understands and observes the safety notes. If the Eagle sensor is

a part of a larger system, the system manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that all safety

features are practiced. The owner of the device is responsible for ensuring that the device is

used for its intended purpose and for the actions of their employees while operating the

sensor. The owner is also responsible to notify Oculii as soon as the sensor displays any safety

defects.

8.2 Operating Risk

i) The system is not defined for free use in safety critical systems. However, it can be

integrated into a system by the user, to adhere to safety regulation systems,

features, or applications.

ii) The user should be aware of falsified information that could occur over time due to

external factors such as mechanical stress, accident, accidental drop, or natural

disasters. The user should thus adopt practices that to measure the data output

periodically and ensure that it meets expected results. The user should also ensure

that any surfaces in the field of view of the sensor are kept clean and metal free. If

the sensor starts displaying false information the user should report the same to

Oculii.

iii) Lack of knowledge or incomplete training of employees operating the sensor could

result in accidents, injury or damage to property, assets, or the environment. Users

should ensure all personnel operating the sensor are equipped with the technical

knowledge and training to do so.

iv) When deploying multiple sensors ensure that there is no falsified information that is

present, either from the interruption of the radar beams or from interference from

other sensors or electromagnetic radiations from other devices.

v) When installing the sensor ensure that the front plate or any secondary surface in

the field of view is free from the potential accumulation of ice, water or mud films.

vi) Ensure that the power supplied is enough to operate the sensor and that the CAN

cable pins are matched to their intended destination.

vii) Ensure that the housing of the sensor develops no scratches or cracks as that can

impact signal integrity and heat transfer properties.
