About EyeSight
4
CAUTION
• The characteristics of the stereo camera are similar to those of human eyes.
For this reason, conditions that make it difficult for the driver to see in the for-
ward direction have the same effect on the stereo camera. They also make it
difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles and traffic lanes.
• Detection by the EyeSight system is limited to objects that are within the
range of the stereo camera’s field of view. Also, after an object enters the
range of the camera’s field of view, it may take some time for the system to
detect it as a controllable target and to warn the driver.
• Under the conditions listed below, it will become more difficult for the system
to detect the vehicle in front, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and obsta-
cles on the road, and lane markers. Also, EyeSight may temporarily stop
operating. However, the temporary stop will be canceled once these condi-
tions have improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of time.
- Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog). In particular,
the system is more likely to temporarily stop operating when there is an oil
film adhering to the windshield, a glass coating has been applied, or poorly
performing wipers are used.
- When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight beams of
oncoming traffic, etc.)
- When the front windshield washer is in use.
- When raindrops, water drops, or dirt on the windshield are not wiped off
sufficiently
- When the windshield has become fogged, scratched, or snow, dirt, dust or
frost has adhered to it, or it is otherwise affected, these will reduce the ste-
reo camera's field of view.
- When the vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded cargo or other
factors.
- When the stereo camera’s field of view is obstructed (for example by a
canoe on the roof of the vehicle)
- When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the
wind, or when the front vision is obscured due to water splashes, snow, dirt
or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic
