# Blind Spot Alert Systems Kreitech Launched the 'BSA' Self-Installed System on IndieGogo By Colin Smith | Published 2022-11-28 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blind-spot-alert References: [indiegogo](https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/bsa-first-self-installed-blind-spot-alert-system) & [blindspotalert](https://www.blindspotalert.com/)  Kreitech launched the Blind Spot Alert (BSA) system through a crowdfunding campaign on [IndieGogo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brainprotecting-wearable-device). The system is easy to install on any car, providing additional smart ways to check one's blind spot before merging lanes. The company notes that [side view mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sensor-system1) often have large blindspots, many cars do not have dedicated blindspot-checking systems, and drivers are sometimes careless and do not physically turn their heads to check a blindspot before merging. The BSA attaches to a side view mirror with adhesive, meaning it is compatible with any car. This system not only serves as a secondary mirror that faces the blind spot, but also features a small blinking LED that will inform the driver if a car is in their blind spot. Kreitech notes that its aftermarket Blind Spot Alert system is equally effective when compared to a [factory-installed one](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/go-industries).
