ADAS Calibration and Diagnostics
If you are looking for ADAS calibration in Hitchin then Auto Service & Tuning Centre has you covered. The majority of modern vehicles are equipped with ADAS or Advanced Driver Assist Systems. These cutting-edge systems make use of both cameras and radar to deliver features such as autonomous emergency braking, park assist, blind-spot detection, and lane-keeping, significantly enhancing vehicle safety, and user experience. Components of the ADAS system often become misaligned, primarily as a result of accidents, or remedial work, leading to inaccurate readings. In serious cases, this inaccuracy may result in significant vehicular safety issues. The ADAS calibration process works to ensure all sensors, cameras, and radar systems are correctly calibrated and aligned, allowing the system to work to its full effect.

ADAS Calibration FAQs
What is ADAS?
The majority of modern cars are equipped with ADAS or Advanced Driver Assist Systems. These cutting-edge systems rely on the use of both cameras and radar to deliver features such as autonomous emergency braking, park assist, and lane-keeping, significantly enhancing vehicle safety, and user experience.
ADAS uses the data delivered by cameras and radar to allow the system to ‘see’ what is happening in, and around the vehicle, helping warn the driver of potential hazards, and ensure optimum functionality.
What is ADAS calibration?
ADAS is heavily reliant upon the delivery of data and information from a variety of sensors, cameras, and radar systems placed throughout the vehicle. The combination of these parts help ADAS to ‘see’ what is happening in and around the vehicle, allowing features like park assist, and autonomous emergency braking to be delivered effectively.
These sensors can become misaligned, both as a result of general use over time and as a result of collisions or accidents, leading to inaccurate readings. This is where ADAS calibration is required. The calibration process will ensure all sensors, cameras, and radar systems are correctly calibrated and aligned, allowing the ADAS system to work effectively.
