Night View Assist: How night becomes day
 |
Four eyes see more than two. "Awareness enhancers" are therefore an important component of the safety package for Daimler vehicles.
Night View Assist is a further safety innovation that will make driving at night safer for all road users. Infrared technology greatly enhances the driver's range of vision in the dark. Two separate headlamps illuminate the road with invisible, non-reflective infrared light. A windscreen-mounted camera designed to pick up precisely this type of light records what happens in front of the car and sends the image to a display on the dashboard. A greyscale image highlights pedestrians, cyclists and obstacles clearly at an early stage. In the further modified version, Night View Assist PLUS, persons detected are further highlighted on the display by means of a specially developed pedestrian-detection function.
