DID YOU KNOW More than 4 million vehicles on the road today are fitted with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) such as Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB). That’s over 10% of the car parc! Thatcham Research has issued a position to enable the automotive industry to efficiently and safely repair ADAS: If ADAS sensors, or parts that are in proximity to ADAS sensors, are included in a repair specification, calibration post repair must be completed to confirm sensors are functioning to the vehicle manufacturers’ specified tolerances. ■ Research and seek guidance from relevant repair methods and calibration instructions. ■ Ensure all calibration activities are completed by currently competent technicians. ■ Complete system calibration in accordance with the relevant repair method / instruction. ■ Be able to demonstrate that the calibration of all affected sensors has been completed and that the results of the calibration confirms functionality within the vehicle manufacturer’s specified tolerance – unless stated otherwise in the repair specification. ■ Where no specific repair guidance exists, and functionality cannot be proven through systemised calibration, then advice should be sought from the vehicle manufacturer’s dealership network and appropriate action taken prior to vehicle release. ■ If vehicle manufacturer information states dynamic calibration, this should be completed and confirmed prior to vehicle release. ARE YOU READY FOR THE CHANGES WITHIN THE ADAS REPAIR PROCESS? FROM THE 31ST MARCH 2021 ANY REPAIRER SHOULD FOLLOW UK INSURANCE INDUSTRY REQUIREMENTS (IIR) FOR THE SAFE REPAIR OF ADAS EQUIPPED VEHICLES IIR OVERVIEW ■ Identify if the vehicle is fitted with ADAS and document ■ This must be carried out by a competent (trained) person ■ Where ADAS is present establish if there is any requirement for calibration after the work is completed ■ Road tests should be carried out by a current competent person ■ Calibration results should always be documented ■ Fully verifiable and auditable records provided to asset owner / work provider WHAT IS UK INSURANCE INDUSTRY REQUIREMENTS (IIR)? IIR is a guidance document set out by UK insurance companies and industry stakeholders. WHY WAS IT CREATED? To support repairers to meet the UK insurer requirements for conducting repairs involving ADAS. WHEN DOES IIR APPLY? IIR applies to repair, servicing or maintenance of vehicles fitted with ADAS systems. More info at https://www.thatcham.org/thatcham-research-brings-clarity-to-adas-repair-2/ In addition vehicle repairers should: ■ Assess for the presence of ADAS sensors and record the outcome clearly. IIR SHOULD BE FOLLOWED WHERE THE REPAIR, SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE OF THE FOLLOWING IS UNDERTAKEN ■ ADAS Sensors – Example Camera / Radar / LIDAR ■ Replacing the sensor / sensor control unit ■ Parts likely to affect the operation / functionality of ADAS sensors ■ Example brackets / mountings including removal and refit ■ Vehicle geometry changes

HOFMANN MEGAPLAN DIGITAL ADAS This system is unique to Hofmann Megaplan in the UK. A 65” TV/ Monitor is used to display the various ‘patterns’, or ‘targets’, for each vehicle application, and set up time is dramatically reduced because the ‘targets’ automatically distort themselves to align to the vehicle. As new vehicles are added, updates are provided free of charge and simply downloaded to the diagnostic device.

■ Digital Solution – No Boards ■ Includes Full Diagnostic Tool ■ Independent to the wheel alignment system ■ Included onsite training and setup

FRONT RADAR

The front camera system is fitted behind the windscreen and performs tasks such as lane assistance, high beam assist and road sign recognition among other things. This system requires calibration when the windscreen is replaced and after alignment / suspension work.

This system normally comprises of 4 or more cameras around the vehicle, the images are then stitched together to form a 360 degree view around the vehicle. These systems require calibration when a camera is replaced or removed / refitted.

The front radar is normally fitted behind badges and bumpers and performs tasks such as adaptive cruise control and emergency braking. These systems normally require calibration when a bumper is removed, following a crash repair and after alignment / suspension work.
