i-ACTIVSENSE (Some Models)

i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term covering a series of advanced safety and driver support systems which make use of a Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) and radar sensors. These systems consist of active safety and pre-crash safety systems.

These systems are designed to assist the driver in safer driving by reducing the load on the driver and helping to avert collisions or reduce their severity. However, because each system has its limitations, always drive carefully and do not rely solely on the systems.

Pre-Crash Safety Technology

Pre-crash safety technology is designed to assist the driver in averting collisions or reduce their severity in situations where they cannot be avoided.

Detection Devices

Forward sensing camera (FSC)

The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) determines the conditions ahead of the vehicle while travelling at night and detects traffic lanes. The following systems also use the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).

  • High Beam Control system (HBC)

  • Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)

The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) is installed at the top of the windscreen near the rearview mirror.

Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) (Search).

Laser sensor

The laser sensor emits a near-infrared laser beam and receives the beam reflected off the reflective surface of a vehicle or obstruction in front, and the detected beam is then used for measurement. The laser sensor is used for the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system.

The laser sensor is installed at the top of the windscreen near the rearview mirror.

Refer to Laser Sensor (Search).

Radar sensors (rear)

The radar sensors (rear) function by detecting the radio waves reflected off a vehicle approaching from the rear or an obstruction sent from the radar sensor. The following systems also use the radar sensors (rear).

  • Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System

  • Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

The radar sensors (rear) are installed inside the rear bumper, one on the left and right sides.
