Driver assistance systems assist the driver while driving. These systems utilize various technologies such as ultrasonic, image, RADAR, LIDAR, and IR to provide better safety and driving experience. These systems not only provide safety to the vehicle / occupants of the vehicle but now it have broadened its scope to pedestrian and overall road safety. Varying needs of the users such as greater safety, enhanced driving experience, superior vehicle performance, and sophisticated technologies have led to remarkable changes and developments in the driver assistance systems.

Presently, features which are not technologically advanced, like tire pressure monitoring systems, are available in wide variety of vehicles. Quite the reverse, the hi-tech features, such as night vision, adaptive cruise control, drowsiness monitoring system, etc. are available only in few premium luxury car models. Installing these technologically advanced features at an effective cost would be challenge for automobile manufacturers in the near future. Still, the demand for driver assistance systems in OEM is estimated to increase at a significant rate in near future.

The major automobile manufacturers are introducing passenger cars with driver assistance systems to produce safe, high performing, and eco-friendly models. The key manufacturers of driver assistance system such as Continental (Germany), Robert Bosch (Germany), Denso (Japan), Valeo (France), etc. are investing on their R&D and production facility to meet the increasing demand of the driver assistance systems in the automobile production market.
