Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are electronic systems that assist vehicle operators with driving and parking functions through automated technologies including adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, blind spot detection, and parking assistance. ADAS operates at SAE Level 1–2 automation, augmenting rather than replacing the driver, and relies on sensor fusion across cameras, radar, and ultrasonic systems to perceive the vehicle’s environment.
