Know when an emergency service is approaching.
The Target Blu Eye picks up radio traffic from police, ambulance, and fire services via the C2000 network and warns you in time. Even for unmarked vehicles without lights.
Pick up, filter, warn.
The antenna picks up C2000 radio traffic, even when the vehicle is driving without lights and sirens.
The system recognizes emergency service pulses through waveform recognition. It doesn't decode anything and doesn't transmit anything itself.
A bar runs from green to red and you hear a beep. The stronger the signal, the closer it is. Up to three emergency services shown at once.
Which Blu Eye fits you?
Both do the same job. The difference is in the version: you place the GO yourself, while the 2 is permanently and invisibly installed with the best range.
The GO and the 2.
Many customers with a serious car still choose to have it installed. If you'd rather skip dropping off, picking up, and removing it later, you choose the GO. Both are equally valid choices.
Target Blu Eye GO
Placed yourself in a few minutes, with an automatic vacuum suction cup and a battery you charge every two to three weeks. USB-C with an included cigarette lighter plug. Range about 700 meters. Every GO comes with a goodie package.

Permanently and invisibly installed in one car. Standard with a dipole bumper antenna for a range of about one kilometer, and with an extra antenna in the roof sharkfin up to about two kilometers. Can be paired with LaserTrack.
Have the 2 installedHow it behaves in practice.
A gradual buildup
If you're driving the same direction as an emergency service, you'll see the signal steadily build. Well before you see or hear the vehicle.
A shorter head start
A handheld radio sends a pulse roughly every four seconds. With oncoming traffic, your head start is therefore shorter. Enough to calmly make room, and exactly how the C2000 network works.

Is the Target Blu Eye legal?
Yes, fully legal in the Netherlands. Think of it as an FM radio that doesn't play music, but only beeps when an emergency service is nearby.
LED or LCD display.
In the rearview mirror
Hidden behind the glass of your rearview mirror, operated with two buttons on the bottom edge. Sleek and discreet, showing up to three emergency services at once on a single signal bar. In nine out of ten cars, this installation works without any issues, even behind an auto-dimming mirror. Only if your mirror has a built-in camera display is there no room.
Touchscreen on the dashboard
A 2.4-inch touchscreen on the dashboard, with the cable neatly hidden away. Each emergency service gets its own signal bar with channel number, and you change all settings with a tap on the screen. You can also suppress individual channels, for example those of trams or companies that also use TETRA.
What it does pick up.
And what it doesn't.
A Blu Eye listens to emergency services' radio traffic, and nothing else. That's also the limit of what it can do for you.
- Speed cameras and mobile radar units This isn't speed camera detection. It doesn't look at speed measurement.
- An officer with a laser gun Want to be warned about laser too? The installed 2 can be paired with LaserTrack.
- Vehicles not registered on C2000 No signal on the network means no alert. That applies to any system that listens to C2000.
- Units communicating directly with each other Via the network, a registered vehicle sends a pulse every four seconds, which can always be picked up. When units are in direct contact with each other, there's only a signal at the moment someone is actually speaking. Between those moments, an alert can be missed.
Where it works.
Blu Eye listens to TETRA, the network most European emergency services use. Wherever that network is present, it works.
Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, Germany, England, Estonia, Hong Kong, Ireland, Iceland, Croatia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, South Africa, Sweden
- Austria everywhere, except in Carinthia.
- Spain yes in Catalonia, the Basque Country, and around all major cities. The Guardia Civil isn't detected, since they use the older TetraPol.
- Poland coverage around major cities. It doesn't work in rural areas.
- Finland everywhere except the Pirkanmaa region, where it doesn't always warn in time.
France, Switzerland, Czechia
France, Switzerland, and Czechia run on the older TetraPol, which no TETRA system can do anything with. Before you leave, check which technology is used on your route.
Is the Target Blu Eye legal?
Yes, fully legal in the Netherlands. The system only passively receives emergency services' radio signals and decodes nothing. A former minister confirmed in 2016 that it's a legal product and saw no reason to ban it. It's not a radar detector, and those are banned. Read more about Blu Eye and the law.
Is it a radar detector?
No. Think of it as an FM radio that doesn't play music, but beeps as soon as an emergency service is nearby. A radar detector picks up police speed measurement and is banned in the Netherlands. This does something completely different.
Does it also detect speed cameras or a laser gun?
No. It doesn't pick up speed cameras, mobile radar units, or laser guns. Want to be warned about laser too? The installed 2 can be paired with LaserTrack.
From what distance does it warn you?
A handheld radio sends out a pulse roughly every four seconds. If you're driving in the same direction as an emergency service, you'll see a nice buildup from weak to strong. If one is coming toward you, your head start is shorter.
With the GO you get about 700 meters. The installed 2 does about a kilometer with the bumper antenna, and up to about two kilometers with an extra antenna in the roof sharkfin. If your car doesn't have a sharkfin, we'll install one.
Which emergency services does it detect?
Police, ambulance, and fire services active on the C2000 network, including unmarked vehicles without lights and sirens. Vehicles not registered on the network aren't detected.
Doesn't it go off all the time in the city?
That's what City Mode is for. You set a threshold so only the stronger signals are audible, so you're not getting an alert every few minutes in busy cities. The sound tells you how strong a signal is.
In which countries does it work?
In more than twenty countries, including the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Portugal. Partially in Spain, Poland, and Finland. Not in France, Switzerland, and Czechia: they run on the older TetraPol. You'll find the complete list with a map above. Ordering from Belgium? Check out Ordering Blu Eye from Belgium.
What's the difference between the GO and the 2?
The GO is mobile and you place it yourself, ideal if you switch between cars. The 2 is permanently and invisibly installed, with the best range and a choice of LED or LCD display.
What does it cost?
Current prices are listed with the products themselves, including the choice between installing it yourself or having us install it. View the Target Blu Eye GO or the Target Blu Eye 2.
Can I install it myself?
The GO is plug and play, you place it yourself in a few minutes. You can order the 2 as a standalone product or have us install it in Elburg.
Can the 2 be moved to another car later?
Yes, we do that regularly. What it costs depends on the car and the desired placement, so WhatsApp your license plate for a price.
How much warranty do I get?
Two years of manufacturer's warranty on the product, plus our warranty on the installation for as long as you own the car. The firmware keeps being developed and updates are free.
What customers think.
Order the GO or have the 2 installed.
