Home FAQ Product information Blu Eye GO

Is Blu Eye GO just as sensitive in detecting emergency services as Blu Eye 2?

The answer to that is a resounding “yes.” Blu Eye GO is built on the same hardware and software platform as Blu Eye 2. However, there is a difference in the physical configuration of both systems.
Due to its portable nature, Blu Eye GO is equipped with a shorter antenna (7 cm) compared to the bumper mounted antenna (34 cm) that comes with Blu Eye 2. This results in slightly reduced signal reception. On the other hand, the Blu Eye GO antenna is positioned higher in the vehicle behind the windshield, which somewhat compensates for its shorter length. In general, the higher you place the Blu Eye GO behind the windshield and the more upright the antenna is positioned, the better the system will perform.
In practice, there should be no significant difference in detection range between the two systems.
A factor that can have more impact on Blu Eye GO’s detection range is the presence of heat reflective window film. These films often contain metal particles that weaken radio signal reception inside the vehicle. This can be resolved by using an external antenna, which is available as an optional accessory.
You can test for heat reflective window film yourself using your mobile phone. Hold your phone near the windshield while inside the vehicle. If your signal strength drops by 1 to 2 bars when you close the door, your windshield likely has this type of film.

Is Blu Eye GO suitable for use on motorcycles?

Unfortunately, Blu Eye GO is not suitable for use on motorcycles. The system contains advanced components that operate at high clock speeds, which generate heat. To dissipate this heat efficiently, an active cooling system is used that vents through openings in the housing.
In other words, the GO is not waterproof and therefore not fit for motorcycle use.
These ventilation openings should not be sealed, for example by placing the unit in a plastic bag, as this will cause the temperature to rise excessively. This may trigger the thermal protection, causing the system to temporarily shut down. That is the last thing you want when you're in the middle of a ride.

Is the Blu Eye GO registered to a license plate or through another method, for example for theft prevention or recovery?

If your Blu Eye GO is unfortunately stolen, we can block the system at your request. This does not mean the device stops functioning completely, but it prevents the unauthorized owner from performing any updates.

In addition, the serial number of your Blu Eye GO is linked to your email address and to the reference you provide during registration. This can be, for example, your car’s license plate number. While we cannot prevent theft, this system allows us to identify the rightful owner if the device is ever recovered.
