Lane-Departure Prevention


Warning system which prevents lane departure.
This warning system detects lane markings and sounds a chime if you drift from your current lane. The Lane Departure Warning System helps support the driver in keeping the vehicle in its lane of travel. The driver is alerted by a display indicator and an audible warning when the vehicle unintentionally drifts out of its travel lane.

A Camera unit installed behind the windshield detects lane markers in front of the vehicle and calculate its position relative to the lane markers. Brake actuator controls the brake pressure of each wheel individually to generate intended movement. When the vehicle is getting close to lane markers as a result of driver inattention, system warns the driver to pay attention to driving by display and audible buzzer and assists the driver to return the vehicle in the direction of center of the travel lane by generating part of necessary yaw moment. Quick warning in case of unintended lane departure. Gentle control firmly assists the driver's maneuver. Braking actuator is used to turn the vehicle.
