ADAS Calibration

Accuracy is important for sophisticated ADAS systems.

Vehicle crashes are measured in inches and not by the plus or minus tolerances of a vehicle’s specifications. For an ADAS system to operate to its full potential, it must be calibrated with the greatest accuracy possible. If the sensors are misaligned, the farther the vehicle looks down the road, the greater the inaccuracy. This can impact all ADAS functions, such as AEB, Lane Keeping and Blind Spot Monitoring.
