ADAS stands for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems.
In the automotive industry, ADAS refers to a set of technologies and features that assist drivers in the driving process, enhance vehicle safety, and provide a more comfortable driving experience. These systems typically rely on sensors, cameras, and other advanced technologies to monitor the vehicle's surroundings, detect potential hazards, and assist in various driving tasks. ADAS technologies are designed to improve road safety, reduce the risk of accidents, and enhance overall driving convenience.
Students have to build the automotive system from scratch when they want to study and research. Most systems available on the market typically have only one system-on-a-chip (SoC) that handles both heavy processing tasks (AI, image processing) and real-time operations (engine control, sensor reading).
