ADAS Calibration After a Collision
Many modern vehicles have cameras, radar sensors, and other equipment that help drivers recognize and respond to potential hazards. These advanced driver assistance systems can provide warnings or intervene when they detect certain dangerous situations.
Common driver-assistance features include automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rearview cameras, and 360-degree camera systems.
Cameras and sensors must be precisely positioned for these features to work correctly. Even a relatively minor collision can disturb their alignment. Collisions that involve bumpers, windshields, suspension components, and structural parts can all affect the alignment of ADAS components.
Fortunately, you can turn to Ourisman Alexandria Certified Collision Center for ADAS calibration using manufacturer-approved procedures to help restore the proper operation of affected systems.
How Does ADAS Calibration Work?
Depending on the vehicle, calibration may involve one or both of the following methods:
- Static calibration: Technicians use specialized targets and equipment to calibrate cameras or sensors while the vehicle remains stationary.
- Dynamic calibration: Certain systems require calibration during a road test under specified driving conditions.
Our technicians inspect the affected equipment and identify the required procedures. Then they perform the appropriate calibration and run diagnostic tests to identify faults that need attention before the vehicle is returned to service.
