ADAS Camera Calibration

About ADAS Windscreen Camera Calibration

At Advanced Auto Glazing, our priority is keeping you safe on the road.

With constant advancements in car technology, new intelligent driver assist systems are finding their way into more and more models, including parking cameras which provide additional visibility to aid drivers with parking manoeuvres and Lane Departure Warning (LDW) systems that prevent the vehicle from leaving the road. Many systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control and Autonomous Emergency Braking can even detect obstacles around the vehicle and take control to prevent accidents.

Ultimately, our vehicles are getting smarter, and it’s through the introduction of new sensors and processors that they are better equipped to keep us safe.

These systems are often referred to by the umbrella term “Advanced Driver Assistance Systems”, or “ADAS” for short.

What Are ADAS Systems?

There are a huge number of systems that can be considered ADAS Systems – from Adaptive High-Beam (AHS) systems to Collision Avoidance Systems (CAS) and even fully autonomous “Autopilot” systems. These are all examples of ADAS or “Advanced Driver Assistance Systems”.

In order to work effectively, ADAS Systems are reliant on a network of sensors and cameras.

Why Would My ADAS System Need Recalibrating?

Following windscreen repairs or replacements, it is crucial to perform ADAS Sensor Realignment and Windscreen Camera Recalibration. These ADAS sensors and cameras may become misaligned and require precise refitting. If your vehicle’s driver assistance systems are not aligned correctly, they may not work effectively. This could put your safety at risk and increase the chances of accidents happening. It is important to ensure that these systems are properly calibrated to keep you safe on the road.

Advanced Auto Glazing strongly recommends recalibrating your ADAS systems after completing any windscreen repair or replacement. Our experts have the skills and tools to make sure your ADAS systems are working properly, keeping you safe while driving.

The calibration process varies depending on the vehicle’s make and model. It also depends on the type of ADAS system the vehicle has. In general, the process may involve the following steps:

Preparation: The technician will first ensure that the vehicle is in a suitable location, such as a flat and level surface with adequate lighting. They may also need to remove any obstructions that may interfere with the camera(s).

Initial Calibration: The technician will use special equipment to connect the vehicle. They will perform tests to find the initial calibration values for the camera(s). This may involve adjusting the camera’s orientation, focus, and other settings.

Target Placement: The technician will put targets in certain spots around the vehicle. The cameras will use these targets to adjust their position and direction. The targets may be placed on the ground, on a specialized calibration frame, or on other fixtures.

Final Calibration: The technician will make final adjustments to the camera’s position, focus, and settings. They will use data from the initial calibration and target placement. They will use specialized software and equipment to ensure that the calibration is accurate and precise.

Verification: After calibrating the system, the technician will test to make sure the ADAS system is working properly. This may involve driving the vehicle and monitoring the system’s performance.
