Track guidance
General
The track guidance function evaluates the course of the road in front of the vehicle using the multifunction camera (lane recognition).
Lane recognition |
P54.71-2082-81
The multifunction camera calculates the lane based on two lane algorithms. If comparison of these lane algorithms results in a match, the multifunction camera generates a safe lane. The multifunction camera uses this data to calculate the relative position of the vehicle in the lane.
If the track guidance function detects that the vehicle has left the lane, it warns the driver with noticeable steering wheel vibrations generated by the steering system. The system also evaluates the driving behavior of the driver and decides the point at which a warning is to be issued. In addition, the track guidance function can guide the vehicle back into the lane by means of targeted intervention by the brake system. The track guidance function can be switched on and off manually.

Vehicle moving forward
Track guidance
The driver can choose between 2 track guidance operating modes:
Standard (Sensitivity increased, warnings issued earlier and more frequently)
Adaptive (reduced sensitivity, warnings issued later and less often)
Track guidance operates in a vehicle speed range from 60 to 200 km/h (vehicles without Driving Assistance Package) or 60 to 210 km/h (vehicles with Driving Assistance Package).
The track guidance function evaluates the following function-relevant parameters:
Information from the lane recognition system
Information about parallel/oncoming traffic (vehicles with Driving Assistance Package)
Driver activity
Driver distracted
If the multifunction camera detects that the vehicle has crossed lane markings, the steering wheel vibrates to warn the driver that the vehicle has left the lane. If the driver does not react to this warning and the vehicle continues to leave the lane, the track guidance function steers the vehicle back into the lane. For this purpose, the track guidance function requests wheel-specific interventions by the brake system. However, brake application is only triggered when 2 stored lane algorithms deliver the same result.
Vehicles with Active Lane Keeping Assist:
The track guidance function compares the results of the lane algorithm of the multifunction camera (mono) with a reference algorithm.
Vehicles with Driving Assistance Package:
The multifunction camera (stereo) contains 2 lane algorithms, the results of which are compared with each other.
The track guidance function triggers course-correcting brake application if the vehicle crosses a continuous or broken line.
The following conditions must be fulfilled here:
Lane width 2.6 to4.7 m
Curve radius > 500 m (inside radius), > 150 m (outside radius)
Tire pressure of all wheels within the tolerance range (run-flat mode not active) (vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system)
No trailer operation (vehicles with trailer hitch)
Brake application by brake system enabled (no active control intervention by brake system)
If the system detects driver activity or that the driver is distracted, brake application is canceled.
Vehicles with Driving Assistance Package:
In the case of lane-correcting brake application, the track guidance function takes the oncoming/parallel traffic in the adjacent lane into consideration and guides the vehicle back onto a collision-free course.
