ADAS Camera Calibration (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems)

Here at Motorway Windscreens, we understand the prevalence of ADAS systems in today’s vehicles.  Front Screen-Mounted ADAS camera systems and Radar systems are becoming indispensable to everyday motoring and can be for any of the following:

• Adaptive cruise control (ACC)
• Glare-free high beam and pixel light
• Adaptive light control: swivelling curve lights
• Anti-lock braking system
• Automatic parking
• Automotive navigation system with typically GPS and TMC for providing up-to-date traffic information
• Automotive night vision
• Blind spot monitor
• Collision avoidance system (Pre-crash system)
• Crosswind stabilization
• Cruise control
• Driver drowsiness detection
• Driver Monitoring System
• Electric vehicle warning sounds used in hybrids and plug-in electric vehicles
• Emergency driver assistant
• Forward Collision Warning
• Intersection assistant
• Hill descent control
• Intelligent speed adaptation or intelligent speed advice (ISA)
• Lane departure warning system
• Lane change assistance
• Night Vision
• Parking sensor
• Pedestrian protection system
• Rain sensor
• Surround View system
• Tire Pressure Monitoring
• Traffic sign recognition
• Turning assistant
• Vehicular communication systems
• Wrong-way driving warning

However, when fitting a new windscreen, the bracket to which these cameras are fitted to could potentially not be in the exact place that the original bracket was, as these are set by the varying  glass manufacturers, meaning that the ADAS camera and the new bracket will not be synced properly, rendering them potentially inoperative, which could not only be dangerous if the driver relies on them but might also void any insurance claim if the vehicle is involved in an accident but no documented history of a relevant camera or radar calibration.

Don’t worry, though, our brilliant technicians offer a calibration service whereby the new bracket and original ADAS system can marry up perfectly.

This technology is the future of fully-integrated windscreen replacements, and our team will make sure that the calibration process is exacted with absolute precision. Motorway Windscreens always strive to be ahead of the pack, and it’s this sort of technology which puts us there.
