Honda Sensing is an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) developed by Honda to improve driver situational awareness and intervene in certain circumstances to help avoid a collision or mitigate its severity. The system uses millimeter wave radar and a monocular camera to continually track the distance to the vehicle ahead and adjust accordingly. Some of the features included in Honda Sensing are:
-
Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS): This feature helps to prevent or reduce the severity of a collision by applying the brakes when the system detects an unavoidable collision with a vehicle or pedestrian in front of the car.
-
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM): This feature helps to keep the car on the road by detecting when the car is about to leave the road and applying the brakes to keep it on the road.
-
Lane Departure Warning (LDW): This feature alerts the driver when the car is drifting out of its lane without signaling.
-
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC): This feature maintains a set speed and distance from the car in front of the vehicle.
Honda Sensing is standard on many Honda models, including the 2022 Insight. The system has been available since 2015 and has continued to improve and expand, representing a technological bridge to the automated driving technology of the future.
