Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Video camera
The video camera for the lane departure warning installed in the mirror base of the inside mirror monitors the near field of the vehicle. The video camera records the roadway up to approx. 40 metres in front of the vehicle and up to approx. 5 metres to the right and left at the sides of the vehicle. Image data are routed over a LVDS data line to the KAFAS control unit and evaluated. The control unit uses image processing to search in the imagery recorded by the video camera for possible existing lane and road markings.
