Texas CAV Task Force

Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS)

« Back to Glossary Index

a system designed to help drivers with certain driving tasks (e.g. staying in the lane parking avoiding collisions, reducing blind spots, and maintaining a safe headway). ADASs are generally designed to improve safety or reduce the workload on the driver. With respect to automation, some ADAS features could be considered SAE Level 1 or 2, but many are Level 0 and may provide alerts to the driver with little or no automation (5).
