What is Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS)?

Today’s new vehicles are rolling out with standard technology that helps prevent accidents and the severe impact of those that cannot be avoided. The Advanced Driver Assistance System, or ADAS, is an advanced driver-assistance system that assists with road safety for drivers, pedestrians, and other vehicles. ADAS helps by recognizing what the driver doesn’t and responding appropriately, alerting the driver, or braking autonomously.

Many components that make up the ADAS Systems are, but not limited to:

• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Automatic Emergency Braking
• Adaptive Headlights
• ADAS Cameras
• Automatic Parking
• Blind Spot Monitoring
• Drowsiness Detection
• Forward Collision Warning
• Lane Departure Warning
• Pedestrian Protection

How does ADAS work in vehicles?

ADAS is a system comprising various camera-based sensors and radar, among other components, to monitor the environment around a vehicle.

When Should You Perform an ADAS Calibration?

ADAS calibrations should be completed whenever a vehicle’s sensors are disrupted or damaged. For example:

• If your windshield is cracked, recalibrate the heads-up display and rain sensors.
• If your vehicle is sideswiped, the mirrors and lane departure warnings must be recalibrated.
• If your vehicle is in a fender bender, you must recalibrate the bumper sensors.
• Including wheel alignments, changing your tire size, or moving a camera during another repair can trigger the need for calibration.
