Introduction
Drive Assist Sensor Overview
Front Sensors
For 2016, many Volkswagen vehicles have a single mid-
range radar sensor. The Touareg has a different system with
two long-range radar sensors . These radar sensors are
used for the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and/or Front
Assist functions.
Multifunctional Front Camera
This camera detects vehicles that may be invisible to the
front radar system by using an actual camera to monitor the
area in front of the vehicle.
The camera monitors the area in front of the vehicle when
stationary, preparing for a restart of the ACC system. It can
also detect lane markings for lane departure warning (Lane
Assist).
Rear Radar Sensors
Some vehicles have Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Traffic
Alert. These systems have two radar sensors under the rear
bumper that scan traffic behind the vehicle.
6-Channel Ultrasound Sensors
For vehicles with Park Assist, two 6-channel ultrasound
systems are used to monitor close range objects. This
allows for assisted parallel and perpendicular parking.
