A multitasking, multidimensional monitor.
The key to many of the new capabilities of Intelligent Drive is its stereo multipurpose camera. From its perch high within the windshield, it continually captures a
rapid succession of images of the environment in front of the vehicle. High-speed algorithms analyze the images to help recognize and predict the presence and
movement of vehicles and pedestrians in six dimensions of space and time — so that the appropriate safety systems of Intelligent Drive can respond as needed.

now help detect an oncoming vehicle or recognize an overtaking vehicle.
360 degrees of vision.
The optional new Surround View System uses cameras in all four directions to
compose a single, live overhead view of your immediate surroundings. Displayed
on the in-dash screen during low-speed maneuvers, it helps you avoid obstacles
as you negotiate tight spaces, whether you’re moving forward or backing up.

it measures more than 70 variables, starting in the first minutes of each drive, to
establish a pattern and determine the warning thresholds accordingly.
