What is Night Vision What: A system that utilizes thermal or InFraRed imaging to See beyond the headlights illumination to identify potential hazards. Why: To improve passenger safety by providing warnings to potentially tired or distracted drivers. Benefits: Decrease in accidents / injuries / deaths caused by tired or distracted drivers How: Utilization of cameras and electronically controlled systems can interpret and react to changing conditions faster than a human driver in many situations reacts. System is Passive (Provide audio, visual or haptic feedback) to notify driver of a pending situation.
Night Vision Operation Thermal or InFraRed camera detect obstructions (vehicles, pedestrians, animals) Notify driver with visual information May utilize recognition algorithms to Recognize objects
Night Vision Components Components Night Vision Camera Forward Looking InfraRed (FLIR) Thermographic (Heat) Module(s) Control Switch Visual Indicators Display Instrument Cluster Heads up Display (HUD)
Night Vision Diagnosis Visual inspection Damage grill / front of car Damage to camera Fault codes OEM SAE Electrical testing Power Ground Signals BUS Communications External conditions Weather Heavy rain Snow / Sleet / Hail Fog Smoke / Dust Lens Clarity
Night Vision Service / Calibration Mechanical Targets Some sensors hard mounted, some may be adjustable Non-related repairs and services can require calibration Alignment Collision Lens Cleaning Systems Self / Auto Driving
