Operation of the lane change assist system
Page 30 | Listen in audio
The lane change assist system is a technology present in many modern automobiles that helps the driver to keep the vehicle within the lane. This system uses sensors and cameras to detect the vehicle's position in relation to the lanes and alert the driver if he is about to leave his lane.
The sensors are installed on the sides of the vehicle and are capable of detecting the lanes using radio signals. These signals are sent by the lane markers present on the roads and are interpreted by the vehicle's sensors. When the system detects that the vehicle is leaving its lane, it emits an audible or visual alert to alert the driver.
In addition, some lane change assist systems are also capable of correcting the vehicle's trajectory automatically. This is done through the electronic steering control, which is capable of making small adjustments to the vehicle's trajectory to keep it within the lane.
This system is especially useful on long journeys, where the driver can become tired and distracted. It helps reduce the risk of accidents caused by lane departures and can save lives.
However, it is important to emphasize that the lane change assist system should not be used as an excuse for the driver to become distracted or inattentive. It is only an aid tool and should not replace the driver's attention and care when driving.
