Smart Guides for Drivers and Technicians
Technical resources, compliance guides, and calibration know-how for automotive technicians and workshops.
Explore the differences between static and dynamic ADAS calibrations with real-world examples. Learn why some vehicles require stationary target boards while others need road tests at specific speeds, and understand…
Explore how suspension lifts, lowering springs, wheel alignments, tyre sizes, offsets and pressures influence ADAS sensor alignment. Learn why modified ride heights and tyres require recalibration and get best practices…
This expanded guide helps technicians diagnose common ADAS fault codes, covering sensor misalignment, communication errors, obstructions, calibration status and internal failures, with step-by-step troubleshooting and brand-specific tips.
Learn how to document ADAS calibration results for insurers. This guide covers pre‑calibration inspections, recording environmental conditions, listing equipment, capturing measurements and verification tests, and storing digital records to support…
LiDAR sensors build 3D point clouds of the road environment and need their own calibration routines. Learn how LiDAR alignment differs from camera boards and radar targets, including the use…
Brand-specific ADAS calibration isn't one-size-fits-all. This technical guide compares Toyota static target setups, Hyundai dynamic routines and Tesla self-calibration processes, highlighting tools, common pitfalls and best practices to ensure sensors…
Explore the pathways to become an ADAS calibration technician: training programmes, core skills, certification options and the need for continuous learning.
Learn how to document ADAS calibration results for insurers: include pre- and post-scans, repair details, alignment measurements and road test notes.
Learn how tyre and suspension modifications affect ADAS accuracy. Discover why ride-height changes misalign sensors and why alignment and calibration are essential after any upgrade.
Understand how ADAS sensors drift and age over time, why misalignment causes safety features to fail and intervene unexpectedly, and how regular calibration, alignment checks and sensor maintenance keep driver…
