Adaptive
Cruise Control
Adaptive
cruise control, also known as intelligent cruise control by
some automakers, a technological progression of cruise control, in which a radar sensor mounted
on the front of a vehicle supplies information that is used
to maintain a safe cruising distance from the vehicle immediately
ahead. Most adaptive cruise control systems allow the driver
to set the minimum desired distance between vehicles, and
will then accelerate and brake to maintain this gap. Many
systems can take into account hilly terrain and passing situations.
All have the ability to behave like regular cruise control,
and still require the driver to steer the vehicle normally.
