Explanation

ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) are a set of systems fitted in the vehicle that help the driver, to increase safety and make driving easier. They warn of danger and can even act on the vehicle's steering and/or brakes to avoid a collision or reduce its consequences. These systems use cameras and sensors that collect information about the surroundings, then act on it and help the driver make the safest possible decisions. ADAS can make up for some human errors, but safe and responsible driving by the driver is still essential.
