Common ADAS Systems

Lane keep assist

Forward collision alert
Collision mitigation braking system
Adaptive cruise control
Types of Calibration
When it comes to proper calibration of ADAS features, there are two primary calibration types – dynamic and static. The calibration process will vary depending on the requirements of different vehicles, but our professionals will be able to perform the needed calibration upon initial assessment regardless of static or dynamic calibration needs.
Static Calibration
Static calibration is an intricate calibration process that requires a certified professional, advanced equipment, and a controlled, safe environment. This process entails camera recalibration along with several other calibration requirements using innovative electronic materials, such as a laser for enhanced precision in order to adhere to the rigorous manufacturer standards.
Dynamic Calibration
Dynamic calibration offers a more simple process than static but should still be performed by a certified professional to ensure safety and precision. This process involves plugging a portable device into the vehicle’s OBD II port to calibrate the vehicle’s ADAS system according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
The Importance of Precise Calibration
Windshield camera recalibration must be precise in order to be efficient and safe as these features are responsible for lane departure warnings, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and more. Therefore, if the calibration is not accurate, the driver risks getting into an accident and becoming injured or damaging their vehicle.
