Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) Description - Overview (2016 2017)
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) System
The LKAS uses the multipurpose camera to read the lane lines on both sides of the road, the multipurpose camera unit draws an imaginary line at the center between both lane lines, and lane keeping assist control is performed by assisting steering so that the vehicle is guided along this imaginary line near the center of the lane.
The system gets suspended when the system determines that the driver is not holding the steering wheel for a certain period of time while LKAS is in operation.
Operation Conditions
| System Operation Conditions | Operation under conditions where lane line recognition is possible on both sides (Lane line recognition may not be possible in bad weather, on snow-covered roads, or with backlight). | |
| Operation vehicle speed | 45 - 90 mph (72 - 145 km/h) | |
| Object lane line types | Broken lines, solid lines, or yellow lines on the road | |
| Driver operation | No operation when the driver's intent to act is recognized by movements of the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, brake pedal, turn signal switch, etc. | |
| LKAS Cancel Alarm | When the LKAS system is canceled, a buzzer sounds (continuous "beep") to warn the driver. The alarm can be set ON/OFF. | |
