If your vehicle is equipped with an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), which relies on the interaction of sensors and cameras, calibration will be required after windshield replacement. Once the windshield is replaced, the cameras must be precisely installed and recalibrated according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Incorrect calibration can significantly affect the functionality of critical safety systems, such as emergency braking and lane departure warning—directly impacting your safety while driving.
The main purpose of ADAS systems is to protect passengers, pedestrians, and cyclists, prevent traffic accidents, and reduce the risk of collisions. These systems operate with the help of various sensors that monitor the road environment and interior, along with microprocessors and controllers that process the data.
According to the EU Vehicle General Safety Regulation, these intelligent systems are expected to help save more than 25,000 lives and prevent at least 140,000 serious injuries by 2038.
