The new
Ford Focus,
the beginning of April 2011 came on the market, it is to launch many
new driver-assistance systems, some of them unique in the compact class.
For example, the fatigue Warner, the lane assistant, the Blind Spot
Assistant or include the Active City Stop to all the major technologies
of the
Ford Focus. In addition, the new Focus was produced in
the Kinetic design to improve the aerodynamics and thus reduce
consumption. Now we want to introduce the new technology in the this
car.
Ford Focus: Fatigue Warner
The very name “Warner
fatigue,” explains a lot, but how the technology works so far unique in
the compact class? This is actually easy to explain, the driver is
alerted by two different directions. In the first step, the system says:
“Warning – Driver tired – recommended rest. Supporting this yellow note
by acoustic signal. the driver of the
Ford Focus ratios continue
striking and ignored the message, a red message will appear with the
text “Warning – tired drivers – please stop!”. This notice is preserved
longer visible, and is also supported by an acoustic signal. But how
does the fatigue Warner, that the driver is tired? In the front area,
specifically on the windscreen at the height of the mirror, a camera is
mounted, the camera measures the distance to the road markings. Leaves
the driver of the
Ford Focus to the track often and abruptly pulls on the steering wheel, warns the system and recommends a rest.
