Calibrations & Diagnostics Utilizing AI and 4k Digital Image Processing
Blindspot detection systems can use radar or cameras, and some systems use both. The radar sensors emit radiowaves that bounce off objects and are received by the sensor. The sensors are mounted in the rear bumper. Camera systems will have cameras mounted to the side mirrors or A-pillar. The image from the camera is processed by a computer to classify the object. Some systems will use both radar and camera sensors to make a more accurate classification.
Most radar sensors have a self- or dynamic-calibration procedure. This procedure may require a scan tool to initialize the process and a test drive. Camera systems may require calibration if the unit is replaced or moved. Some of these calibration procedures require target mats to be placed on the floor next to the vehicle. The process will require a scan tool to initiate the calibration procedure.
