Steering and Lane Control Assistant
This unique and practical system includes a traffic jam assistant, which can be activated to support the driver during various traffic situations. At speeds of up to 210 kilometres per hour, this system helps support the steering by keeping the vehicle in the centre of the lane. It utilizes various area surveillance radar systems and a video camera. You're probably wondering how it stays in the centre of the lane; actually, it's quite simple. It positions itself by using the edge of lane markers and the vehicle in front. It will then keep a safe distance by regulating your vehicle speed even from a standstill. The Steering and Lane Control Assistant represents the future of autonomous driving. Although the vehicle is designed to drive independently, legally, the driver is responsible when behind the wheel.
