Electric and hybrid electric vehicles have systems that form the foundation of driver assist systems.
Advanced driver assist systems (ADASs) aim to alert and assist the driver in maintaining safe driving habits and avoiding collisions.
The human-machine interface (HMI) has evolved to include visual displays, sounds, and tactile feedback.
The blind spot monitor (BSM) detects other vehicles located to the side and rear of the vehicle.
The parking-assist system helps drivers avoid contact with objects while moving slowly.
Ultrasonic and electromagnetic sensors are used in the parking-assist system to measure distances to nearby objects.
Self-parking vehicles use cameras and electric power steering to guide the vehicle into a parking space.
Ultrasonic sensors in the bumper are sensitive to paint thickness.
The lane departure warning system (LDWS) uses cameras or infrared sensors to detect if the vehicle is crossing over lane marking lines on the pavement.
System names for LDWS vary according to vehicle manufacturers.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) detects if a vehicle is crossing a lane dividing line.
Lane Keep Assist (LKA) warns the driver and steers the vehicle back into the lane if no response is given.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) maintains a safe distance behind the vehicle in front.
ACC uses forward-looking radar to sense distance and relative speed.
Radar frequencies for ACC include 76-77 GHz (long-range) and 24 GHz (short-range).
Intelligent Speed Advice (ISA) uses sign recognition or GPS to determine speed limit and warn the driver.
Some ISA systems automatically limit vehicle speed to prevent exceeding the speed limit.
Euro NCAP awards vehicle manufacturers for equipping vehicles with ISA.
Before servicing LDWS, check service information and visually inspect sensors/cameras.
Do not use harsh cleaning agents on camera lenses.
