Advanced Driver Assistant System is a group of safety and convenience functions intended to improve comfort for drivers and road safety, and preventing or reducing the severity of potential accidents. ADAS can do all this by alerting the driver, implementing possible safeguards in the vehicle & automating driving controls (based on the driving automation level of the vehicle). Autonomous Level 2 not just makes driving more comfortable and intuitive, but also keeps your safety at the forefront. 

Lane Functions  

Lane Functions keep the vehicle within the lane lines to prevent the vehicle from deviation due to distraction. In case of any unintentional lane departure, it warns the driver through visual and acoustic signals. 

SAS – Speed Assist System  

Speed assist system will monitor any traffic sign on the road from which it is possible to infer speed limit. The system alerts the driver in case of overspeeding through visual and acoustic means. 

FCW – Front Collision Warning  

The forward Collision Prevention system alerts the driver about a probable collision with a four-wheeler, two-wheeler, or a pedestrian when the gap becomes too close. In case the driver takes no action on the alert then the vehicle applies autonomous deceleration. 

ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control  

Adaptive Cruise Control is an advanced version of cruise control and senses the road ahead. It enables the vehicle to control its acceleration and braking to achieve desired speed while maintaining a safe distance from cars ahead. 

Rear Drive Assist
