Thermal image
The image shows the heat radiated by objects in
the field of vision of the camera.
Warm objects have a light appearance and cold
objects a dark appearance.
The ability to detect an object depends on the
temperature difference between the object and
the background and on the level of heat radiation
emitted by the object. Objects that are similar in
temperature to the environment or that radiate
very little heat are difficult to detect.
For safety reasons, when driving at speeds
above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h and in low ambient
light, the image is only displayed when the low
beams are switched on.
A freeze frame is displayed at regular intervals for
a fraction of a second.
Pedestrian and animal detection
Object detection and warning only functions in
darkness.
Objects whose form is similar to people with suf‐
ficient heat radiation are detected.
In addition, the system also detects animals
above a certain minimum size, for instance deer.
Display on the Control Display with thermal im‐
age activated:
▷ People detected by the system: in light yel‐
low.
▷ Animals detected by the system: in dark yel‐
low.
Range of object detection, with good ambient
conditions:
▷ Pedestrian detection: up to approx.
330 ft/100 m.
▷ Detection of large animals: up to approx.
490 ft/150 m.
▷ Detection of medium animals: up to approx.
230 ft/70 m.
Environmental influences can limit the availability
of object detection.
If the vehicle systems detect that the vehicle is
located in a residential area, the animal detection
is temporarily switched off.
