ADAS - Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems
Over the past thirty years that Supertracker have been supplying wheel alignment equipment the advance in vehicle technology has continually moved forward - however it is now moving at a much faster pace.
The advances we are now seeing are in electronic technology available on newer vehicles such as:
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Lane Departure Warning
- Park Assist
- Adaptive Headlights
- Hazard Recognition
- Blind Spot Detection
- Fatigue Warning
These new ADAS rely on the vehicle having the steering geometry correctly set and the radar camera and its systems calibrated using ADAS calibration equipment so everything functions as it was designed to do
When should ADAS systems be calibrated?
Depending on where the ADAS radar sensor is mounted will affect when you will need the system calibrated. The sensors can be mounted to any of the following:
-
Roofs header
-
Rearview mirror
-
Front grill
-
Inside surface of the windshield
If any of these mounting options are moved, replaced or damaged then calibration is needed.
