What Are Advanced Driver Assistance Systems

Advanced driver assistance systems are systems that help drivers during driving or parking. They are intended to increase car safety and more generally more safety by reducing human error. These systems use electronic technology such us microcontroller unit, electronic control units, power semiconductor units and software technology.

Modern vehicles today have advanced driver-assistance systems integrated to their electronics and manufacturers refresh their car models to add more of these features into their cars. Early advanced driver-assistance systems include electronic stability control, anti-lock brakes, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control and traction control.

Adaptive systems

Adaptive advanced driver assistance systems adapts to the surroundings and provide small adjustments to improve safety.

Warning systems

This is a system that warns/ alerts the driver of possible risks to safety.

Blind-spot monitoring

Blind-spot monitoring focuses on using not only cameras but sensors to monitor the space surrounding a vehicle. The technology monitors for objects that are located in the drivers obstructed view. When objects are detected in the blind spot, the sensor-based monitor can alert the driver that there is something in his/ her blind spots.

Forward Video Monitoring

Basically a dashcam is installed on the dashboard or windscreen of the vehicle that automatically records and stores videos of what is happening on the front of the vehicle.
