Windshield Camera Calibration and ADAS Systems
What is windshield calibration?
Windshield calibration involves the recalibration of windshield-mounted cameras in a vehicle’s Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). It ensures the accuracy and functionality of various driver assistance features.
How do ADAS cameras work?
ADAS cameras, typically mounted near the rearview mirror inside the vehicle’s windshield, detect lane markings, road signs, and relevant road conditions. They capture images, which are then analyzed by software to assess potential hazards and recommend appropriate actions.
How is windshield calibration performed?
Professional technicians perform windshield calibration in a controlled environment using specialized tools and equipment. There are two main methods: static calibration, which adjusts hard-coded values, and dynamic calibration, where on-road maneuvers ensure that safety features work correctly.
When is windshield camera calibration necessary?
Calibration becomes necessary when something moves an ADAS camera from its original position. Common instances include windshield replacement, collisions and accidents, wheel alignments, suspension changes, or camera replacement/removal.
