24 Sep 2017|5,512 views
The Subaru Forester has been updated in time for winter in the U.K. with the addition of EyeSight, Subaru's advanced driver assist technology, fitted as standard equipment. EyeSight acts as a second pair of eyes for the driver and depending on the vehicle's speed, can completely avoid and significantly reduce the severity of accidents at high speed. With safety as one of the main objectives, EyeSight was also developed to lower carbon emissions by reducing incident congestion and subsequently lower the economic effects of sitting in traffic.
EyeSight has two stereo cameras, mounted on each side of the rear view mirror, and they use image recognition to capture 3D colour images with clinical precision. The technology can distinguish vehicles, motorbikes, bicycles, pedestrians, lane markings and road furniture. It can differentiate between these and determine the general traffic conditions. With an emphasis on real world tests and evaluations, EyeSight has been developed to correspond exclusively to the individual country's traffic conditions.
In total EyeSight uses six technologies to maximise safety, including Adaptive Cruise Control, Pre-Collision Braking, Pre-Collision Throttle Management, Lane Departure and Sway Warning, Lane Keep Assist and Lead Vehicle Start Alert. EyeSight will be standard equipment on all Forester XE Lineartronic and XE Premium Lineartronic models from October and will also be equipped with a black shark fin antenna and DAB radio.
