Automotive electronics Driver assistance

1 Adaptive cruise control system


Autonomous car - 2010s

1 These include adaptive cruise control, a system that monitors distances to adjacent

vehicles in the same lane, adjusting the speed with the flow of traffic; lane assist,

which monitors the vehicle's position in the lane, and either warns the driver when the

vehicle is leaving its lane, or, less commonly, takes corrective actions; and parking assist, which assists the driver in

the task of parallel parking.


Autonomous car - Official projections

1 By Mid-2010's, Toyota plans to roll out near-autonomous vehicles

dubbed Automated Highway Driving Assist with Lane Trace Control and

Cooperative-adaptive Cruise Control.


Ford Fusion Energi - Second generation

1 Fusion can help drivers maintain proper lane position (Lane Keeping System); adjust vehicle speed to changing traffic conditions through adaptive cruise control; active park assist to

help identify suitable parking spaces and help park; and Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)

with cross-traffic alert, which consists of sensors in both rear quarter-panels that are able to

detect traffic in a driver’s Blind spot (vehicle)|blind spot, providing both audible and visual

warnings if traffic unseen by the driver is detected


Honda Accord Plug-in Hybrid - Ninth generation (2013–present)

1 Highline models (EX, EX-L, and Touring grades) offer Smart Key, LED daytime running lamps, headlamps,

and tail lamps; and an adaptive cruise control system.


Ford Taurus - Sixth generation (2010–present)

1 Some of these features include all wheel drive, cross traffic alert,

collision warning, blind spot monitoring and adaptive cruise

control


Ford Taurus - Sixth generation (2010–present)

1 There is also an available performance package on the new SHO, which deletes non-essential options such as Power Sunroof,

Heated/Cooled Seats, Multi-Contour Seats, Auto-Sensing Lights and Wipers, Adaptive Cruise Control,

Adjustable Pedals, Blind Spot Information System (BLIS), and

Satellite Navigationhttps://store.theartofservice.com/the-adaptive-cruise-control-toolkit.html

Laser radar - Transportation

1 Lidar has been used in Adaptive Cruise Control|adaptive cruise control

(ACC) systems for automobiles


Autonomous cruise control system - Cooperative systems

1 The next generation, also known as the Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control, will include information served from a vehicle ahead in the same lane. Such dependant

approach however requires standardization across manufacturers and model generations.

There is no vision when such agreement could come into practice. All designs without such cooperative support will operate with comparably lower dynamic, but promise

better reliability and independent operation.


Autonomous cruise control system - Available systems

1 This system maintains continuous control from speeds of 0km/h to 100km/h and is

designed to work under repeated starting and stopping situations such as highway traffic

congestion.[http://www.toyota.eu/06_Safety/03_understanding_active_safety/

03_cruise_control.aspx ] The Lexus division was the first to bring adaptive cruise control to

the US market in 2000 with the Lexus LS|LS 430's Dynamic Laser Cruise Control system.


Autonomous cruise control system - Available systems

1 In the United States, Acura first introduced Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) integrated with a Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) in the late calendar year 2005 in

the model year 2006 Acura RL as an optional feature. ACC and CMBS also

became available as optional features in the model year the 2010 Acura MDX Mid

Model Change (MMC) and the newly introduced model year 2010 Acura ZDX.


Autonomous cruise control system - Vehicles models supporting adaptive cruise control

1 Vehicles with full speed range adaptive cruise control are able to

bring the car to a full stop, and resume from standstill.


Lane departure warning system - Timeline of available systems

1 If the adaptive cruise control|radar cruise control system is engaged, the Lane Keep function works to help reduce the driver's

steering-input burden by providing steering torque; however, the driver must remain

active or the system will deactivate.[ http://www.lexus.eu/site-tools/technology-glossary/Index.aspx?index=JtoL LEXUS]
