What is ADAS?
ADAS calibrations might sound super tricky, like a puzzle that’s hard to solve. But guess what? We’ve made it much easier with just 7 simple steps. Now with 7 Step ADAS, you can get the job done quicker & easier. Translating to more earnings.
Let’s get started with the basics
ADAS, or Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, are electronic systems in a vehicle that use advanced technologies to assist the driver. Specifically, these systems enhance vehicle safety by helping to prevent accidents before they occur.
Key features of ADAS sensors include:
- Adaptive Cruise Control: Automatically adjusts the vehicle speed to maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead.
- Lane Keeping Assistance: Monitors road markings to help keep the vehicle within its lane.
- Collision Avoidance: Applies brakes or adjusts steering to prevent collisions.
- Parking Assistance: Offers guidance or automatic controls for safe parking.
Moreover, ADAS relies on inputs from various data sources, including radar, cameras, lasers, and ultrasonic sensors, to create a detailed and accurate detection area around the vehicle. Consequently, this not only improves safety but also enhances the overall driving experience by reducing the driver’s workload.
In todayโs world, where roads are busier than ever, ADAS is not just a luxuryโitโs a critical component that contrr, ADAS is not just a luxuryโitโs a critical component that contributes to safer, smarter driving.

What Is 7 Step ADAS ?
The 7 Step ADAS Calibration Method is a streamlined approach designed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of calibrating Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in vehicles. Utilizing a combination of simple yet precise tools, this method ensures that vehicle calibration is both straightforward and effective, suitable for a wide range of vehicles and ADAS features.
Key Components of the 7 Step Method:
- Baseline Box Setup: Using basic lasers and targets, we create a baseline box around the vehicle. This box serves as the foundational guideline for all subsequent calibrations, ensuring every adjustment is made with reference to a precisely defined area.
- Tight Line Alignment: The baseline box provides a series of very tight lines that are crucial for accurate target placement. This precision is vital for the proper functioning of ADAS features such as lane keeping, adaptive cruise control, and collision avoidance.
- Lightweight Tools: Instead of heavy, cumbersome equipment, our method uses lightweight tools including lasers, square rulers, and plumb bobs. These tools are easy to handle and transport, facilitating quick setup and breakdown.
How Does 7 Step ADAS Work?
- Establish the Baseline: Set up the baseline box using lasers to outline the perimeter around the vehicle.
- Align the Targets: Place the calibration targets within the baseline box according to the specific requirements of each ADAS feature.
- Perform Calibration: With the vehicle and targets precisely aligned, perform the necessary ADAS calibrations.
- Verify Accuracy: Check the alignment using the tight lines from the baseline box to ensure that each calibration point is correctly set.
Benefits of Using the 7 Step Method:
Versatility: Adaptable to a wide variety of vehicles and calibration types, making it a universal solution for automotive shops.
Speed: Significantly reduces the time required for ADAS calibrations.
Accuracy: Ensures high precision in calibration, critical for the effective functioning of ADAS.
Cost-Effective: Minimizes the use of expensive equipment and maximizes the use of shop space and resources.
