The innovative technology that could save your life.
Most modern cars are now equipped with Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS) and as of 2022, up to 11 Advanced Driver Assist Systems will be mandatory on all new cars.
These high-tech safety systems, including Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Blind Spot Detection, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), are designed to avoid accidents by alerting the driver to a hazard or by automatically taking the necessary action to prevent a collision and saving lives.
ADAS calibrations need to be performed after certain modifications or after part replacement to ensure ongoing accuracy.
When is an ADAS calibration necessary?
Calibration of ADAS cameras and radar sensors is required after many common workshop procedures and repairs.
Some of these include:
Common ADAS Safety Features
Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB)
Provides a visual or audible warning if the vehicle is approaching a slower-moving or stationary object and can automatically apply the vehicle’s brakes if the driver does not take appropriate action to avoid a collision.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Cruise control that automatically alters the speed of the vehicle maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front.
Adaptive Lighting Control (ALC)
Some adaptive lighting systems use the vehicle’s camera to detect the headlights of oncoming traffic at night and automatically dip the vehicle’s lights.
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
These systems use the vehicle’s cameras to detect the road markings and will either provide an alert or automatically adjust the steering if it detects the vehicle change course without indicating.
Blind Spot Detection
Radar sensors monitor zones at the side and rear of the vehicle and provide a visual alert when other road users are within the driver’s blind spot.
Road Sign Recognition (RSR)
The vehicle’s camera ‘reads’ the speed limit signs at the side of the road, or on overhead gantries, and the speed limit is displayed on the vehicle’s dashboard or infotainment screen. In future, similar systems will be used to automatically limit the vehicle’s speed.
Parking Assist
The vehicle’s cameras and sensors scan for an appropriate parking space and automatically apply steering and braking inputs to assist the driver with parking the vehicle.
Pre/Post Calibrations Available
Calibration of ADAS cameras and radar sensors is required after many common workshop procedures and repairs.
