What is ADAS in Dashcams
Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS)
Nearly 93% of traffic accidents are caused by human error, with distracted driving being one of the main reasons. To prevent accidents, car manufacturers have begun equipping vehicles with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), which help to prevent distracted driving by notifying drivers of potential hazards on the road.
What is ADAS?
ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) uses artificial intelligence to monitor the surrounding environment of the vehicle, detect potential threats, and send real-time alerts to keep drivers vigilant. While many modern vehicles come with built-in ADAS features, some dashcams also integrate these functions, allowing any vehicle to benefit from this technology. However, not all dashcams are equipped with ADAS, as it is generally found in high-end brands like YUWEI.
What are the Types of ADAS?
ADAS offers a variety of features, with common functions including:
1. Front Vehicle Departure Alert
Alerts the driver when the vehicle ahead starts moving while the driver’s vehicle is at a stop, helping them keep pace with traffic.
2. Lane Departure Warning System
Monitors the vehicle's position within the lane and alerts the driver if they unintentionally drift out of the lane without using a turn signal, helping to prevent accidents due to distraction or fatigue.
3. Forward Collision Warning System (FCWS)
Alerts the driver when they are too close to the vehicle ahead. Depending on the speed, the system will trigger low-speed or high-speed collision warnings.
4. Rear Collision Warning System
High-end dashcams like the YUWEI V8N are equipped with radar-based rear collision warning systems, which monitor vehicles approaching from behind to prevent rear-end collisions.
5. Safety Camera Alerts
Provides real-time alerts of red light cameras and other traffic enforcement cameras, especially useful for fleet drivers operating in unfamiliar areas.
6. Fatigue Alerts
Reminds drivers to take a break after long hours of driving, helping to prevent accidents caused by fatigue.
ADAS Calibration
To ensure ADAS functions correctly, dashcams typically require calibration based on the vehicle, such as adjusting the camera angle or system settings.
ADAS: Your Driving Assistant
Dashcams equipped with ADAS not only protect the safety of drivers and passengers but also improve traffic flow and prevent accidents. Dashcams like YUWEI offer an extra layer of security, allowing you to drive with peace of mind and enjoy a safer, more responsible driving experience.
