  1. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC): An advanced system that automatically adjusts a vehicle's speed to maintain a safe distance from the car ahead, reducing the need for manual adjustments.
  2. Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) This feature detects an impending forward collision and, if necessary, automatically applies the brakes to prevent or minimize the impact.
  3. Blind Spot Warning (BSW): Alerts the driver when a vehicle or object enters the car's blind spots, typically with a visual cue on the side mirrors.
  4. Lane Departure Warning (LDW): Monitors lane markings and alerts drivers if the vehicle starts to drift out of its lane without signaling.
  5. Lane Keeping Assist (LKA): Works with LDW and automatically makes corrective steering inputs to keep the vehicle within its lane.
  6. Forward Collision Warning (FCW): This uses sensors to monitor the road ahead, warning the driver of a potential collision with a vehicle or object in its path.
  7. Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA): Helps drivers back out of parking spaces by detecting vehicles approaching from the side and issuing an alert.
  8. Pedestrian Detection: Identifies pedestrians near the vehicle and can activate automatic braking if a collision is imminent.
