Roadway Marking
The roadway markings in the image may differ greatly depending on the country, type of
road or prevailing environmental conditions. The system is capable of recognizing a wide
range of roadway markings and types of marking.
An analysable lane marking is subject to unequivocal recognition by the video camera
and control unit first. The lane traveled must have an average width of at least 2.5m.
Physical Limitations of the Optical System
The lane departure warning functions under a wide range of different environmental con-
ditions.
Due to the physical limitations of the system, system availability may be affected by
specific road and environmental conditions, such as snow, fog, rain, or glare and dazzle.
Display and Control Concept
The lane departure warning can be switched on as of terminal 15 ON.
When the ignition is switched on, the lane departure warning system always reverts to the
state that was active when the vehicle was last switched off.
Provided lanes can be detected, the lane departure warning is “primed” (ready) above a
speed of 40 mph.
