Understanding ADAS Calibrations: Ensuring Your Vehicle’s Safety
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) have revolutionized vehicle safety, offering a range of features that help prevent accidents and enhance driving comfort. From forward collision warning to automatic emergency braking, these systems are designed to keep drivers and passengers safe on the road.
However, to ensure the proper functioning of ADAS features, regular calibrations are necessary. ADAS calibrations involve precisely aligning sensors and cameras to the manufacturer’s specifications, ensuring accurate detection and response to potential hazards.
Common ADAS features include:
- Forward collision warning
- Automatic emergency braking
- Adaptive cruise control
- Lane departure warning
- Lane keeping assist
- Blind spot monitoring
- Rear cross traffic alert
- Parking assist/self-parking
- Adaptive headlights
- Automatic headlight high-beam activation and dimming
Proper calibration is essential after any repairs or maintenance that may affect the positioning of ADAS sensors, such as windshield replacement or suspension adjustments. Failure to calibrate ADAS systems correctly can compromise their effectiveness and, ultimately, jeopardize safety on the road.
