Types of ADAS Sensors

Smile windscreens ADAS Solutions

ACC Adaptive Cruise Control.

Normally a radar sensor located in the front bumper, this sensor adjusts the vehicles speed to maintain a set distance from the vehicle in front.

On some vehicles the driver can set the distance. Any damage to the front bumper may cause a fault with the sensor.

If the bumper is removed for accident damage work the sensor will require re-calibration.

AVM Around View Monitoring.

This provides the driver with 360 Degree birds eye view, designed to help the driver park more easily. This is normally a camera-based system with multiple cameras.

RCW Rear Collision Warning

Warns the driver of vehicles that are close to the rear of the vehicle. Normally radar sensors at the rear of the vehicle behind bumper.

LDW Lane Departure Warning

Warns the driver when the vehicle drifts out of their lane. May also affect the steering if the indicators are not used when changing lane, giving the driver a physical warning when crossing a white line in the road.

APA Automated Parking Assistance.

Automatically parks the vehicle at low speed. Several sensors on different part of the vehicle.

LIDAR Light Imaging Detection

Used to create a 3D image of the vehicle surroundings.

NVS Night Vision System

Assists with the driver’s vision at night or in poor vision. A thermographic camera detects hot spots generated by people, animals, or other vehicles.

BSD Blind Spot Detection

Detects and warns driver of vehicles in their blind spot, the two rear corners of their vehicle. Sensors can be in the rear bumper or camera based in the driver and passenger door mirrors. Normally an orange light will appear in the side mirror if a vehicle is detected to warn the driver.

PD Pedestrian Detection

Warns the driver of pedestrians in front of their vehicle. May give a physical or audible warning or could operate the brakes of the vehicle.

TSR Traffic Sign Recognition

Normally a front facing camera will read road signs, speed limit signs for instance then display the speed limit on the instrument cluster, warning the driver when they exceed the speed limit.

On most occasions these sensors will require calibration if they are worked on, for instance when a bumper is removed or a new windscreen is installed. Any change to the wheel alignment, suspension repairs. Please also be aware this technology may be linked to several other systems on the vehicle including seat belt tensioners etc, so a fault on the dashboard may not be a sensor fault.
