Technically, windshield camera calibration<\/strong> is critically necessary every time the windshield is replaced. It must be done so that the data stream transmitted by the sensors and optical elements is correctly interpreted by the vehicle’s ADAS safety systems (for example, automatic emergency braking or the lane assistant). In other words, calibration ensures that the windshield camera perceives the real world accurately, without distance or angle errors, and reacts to changes or hazards in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During windshield replacement, the cameras and sensors are transferred from the old windshield to the new one. Even though we work with top-quality original manufacturer (OEM) glass, the camera’s new position in the glass bracket may differ from the previous one by as much as 1 degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Scientific studies show that even a tiny 1-degree deviation can significantly affect the emergency braking system and\/or cause false activations. To eliminate this error, professional windshield camera calibration<\/strong> is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83d\udcf7 IMG \u2014 ADAS rig and targets for camera calibration<\/p>\n\n\n\n During this process, the old angle data is deleted from the vehicle’s control unit (ECU<\/strong>) and new data parameters are set that are perfectly aligned with the sensor’s new physical position. As a result, windshield camera calibration<\/strong> fully guarantees that the ADAS systems will operate flawlessly, in the manufacturer-specified mode, even after the repair work has been carried out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Manufacturers specify this procedure as mandatory not only when the glass is replaced, but also in the following situations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n At our service center we never work “by eye” \u2013 safety is our priority.
