It only takes a few seconds: a brief call from the office or a message from a loved one or pet in the back seat diverts your attention from the road at exactly the wrong time, and before you realize it, the car has driven many meters into the rear of the automobile that has abruptly stopped in front of you.

Or it might have if your car's automated emergency braking system hadn't sensed the approaching impediment and braked in milliseconds. Although completely autonomous vehicles are still a way off, automated vehicles are already impacting security.

Adaptive cruise control and blind-spot monitoring are two automotive safety technologies originally considered expensive extras. Still, they are now becoming standard as ADAS technologies become more affordable to include in vehicles, and many models embrace them. Thus, the demand for India Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems is growing rapidly.

How Is ADAS Useful in Vehicles?

Like most things, it started off tiny. We turned on the cruise control and started monitoring our speed. Then, backup cameras started to arrive in our cars. As time went on, we relied more and more on sensors to help us park. Then what?

Demand for ADAS is at an all-time high. The industry is presently at Level 2+ autonomy and working toward Level 3. Of course, the ultimate objective is to move toward totally automated driving, when drivers may just become another passenger by averting their eyes from the road. The following are several of the main characteristics of ADAS.

•    Lane Departure Warning Systems

With a tiny camera close to the rearview mirror, lane departure warning systems can distinguish between patterned and solid lane lines. This device emits an alert when the automobile begins to stray from the line without a proper turn signal.

•    Traffic Sign Recognition

Missing a traffic sign might result in a serious car accident. Real-time traffic sign recognition technologies help drivers follow traffic laws and signals.

•    Forward Collision Warning

Forward collision warning is an electronic device installed in cars and trucks to warn drivers in the case of a forward accident with another car or item on the road.

•    Adaptive Cruise Control

The intelligent technology known as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) enables drivers to maintain a safe distance between cars while cruising and swiftly adjust their speed as they approach other cars.

•    Parking Assistance

One of the most popular ADAS systems is parking assistance. To identify impediments during parking and trigger an alert, parking assistance systems commonly use ultrasonic sensors positioned on the front and back bumpers of the car.
