Front View Camera Module - Windshield

For vehicles that don't have Super Cruise there is no K124 Image Processing Module use on the vehicle. The B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module controls the Active Safety components in vehicle that don't have Super Cruise. The Adaptive Cruise Control history buffers will be located in the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module in the Scan Tool.

The active safety system is a comprehensive feature set designed to help a driver avoid collisions or reduce crash damage while driving, backing, and parking. The B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module is the primary controller for the active safety system. The image processing module communicates on multiple serial data busses to share information with various control modules throughout the vehicle. The B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module uses various sensors and control modules to monitor the vehicle surroundings and take deliberate action to avoid collisions or reduce crash damage. The active safety system tightly integrates the forward collision alert, adaptive cruise control, parking assist, and active emergency braking systems into a single cohesive system.

The B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module communicates via serial data with the B233B Forward Range Radar Sensor - Long Range, B233LF Short Range Radar Sensor - Left Front, and B233RF Short Range Radar Sensor - Right Front to create a virtual fusion image of the area in front of the vehicle. The B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module observes an actual visual image of the area directly ahead of the vehicle, within 60 m (197 ft), with the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield. The B233B Forward Range Radar Sensor - Long Range is used to measure the distance to objects that are up to 200 m (656 ft) in front the vehicle and the B233LF Short Range Radar Sensor - Left Front, and B233RF Short Range Radar Sensor - Right Front are used to measure the distance to objects that are within 30 m (98 ft) of the front of the vehicle. Within 60 m (197 ft) of the vehicle, all of these inputs are combined to create a fusion image of the area in front of the vehicle. At up to 200 m (656 ft), the B233B Forward Range Radar Sensor - Long Range will detect and begin tracking objects immediately in front of the vehicle. Within 60 m (197 ft), the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield will confirm objects that have been detected by the B233B Forward Range Radar Sensor - Long Range. The B233LF Short Range Radar Sensor - Left Front, and B233RF Short Range Radar Sensor - Right Front improve cut-in detection, which are objects that enter the vehicle path from the side and are not necessarily detected by the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield and B233B Forward Range Radar Sensor - Long Range, who's focus are those object directly in front of the vehicle.

The fusion image created by the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module is used to detect collision risks and take action based on the immediacy of the risk. If a collision risk exists, the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module will alert the driver using the forward collision alert system. This will provide the driver with a visual and audible or haptic alert that a collision risk has been detected. If the driver does not take action to reduce the risk of collision, such as changing lanes or applying the brakes, the intelligent brake assist system will pre-fill the brake hydraulic system to reduce system response time and increase pressure when quickly applying the brakes. If a collision risk is imminent, the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module will enter automatic collision preparation, which will automatically apply the brakes in an effort to mitigate the collision or reduce collision damage.

The B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module communicates with the steering angle sensor (part of the K43 Power Steering Control Module) and the multi-axis acceleration sensor (part of the K36 Restraints Control Module) on CAN 1. These sensors are used to determine the intended vehicle path. Using the steering data and vehicle acceleration data, the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module will determine where the vehicle will be traveling and focus attention on objects in this path. An example would be a driver quickly changing lanes to avoid a collision. This would mitigate the collision risk in the previous lane and the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module would quickly transition to tracking objects for any collision risk in the new lane based on intended vehicle path. B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module also communicates with the K160 Brake System Control Module to instigate the braking functions of intelligent brake assist and automatic collision preparation.

At the rear of the vehicle, the B174W Front View Camera - Windshield Module uses the B233LR Short Range Radar Sensor - Left Rear, B233RR Short Range Radar Sensor - Right Rear, B233SL Short Range Radar Sensor - Left Rear Side, B233SR Short Range Radar Sensor - Right Rear Side, and the K182 Parking Assist Control Module as part of the backing warning system and the rear automatic braking system. Typical rear parking assist utilizes the K182 Parking Assist Control Module and the four ultrasonic rear parking assist sensors to detect object when reversing at speed of up to 8 km/h (5 mph). The backing warning systems utilizes both the four ultrasonic rear parking assist sensors, as well as the B233SL Short Range Radar Sensor - Left Rear Side and B233SR Short Range Radar Sensor - Right Rear Side to detect object at speeds above 8 km/h (5 mph). The rear automatic braking system is intended to help avoid or reduce the harm caused by backing crashes or prevent the vehicle from being from being reversed into an object if the vehicle is already stopped.

The Active Safety System analyzes data from the various control modules and sensors listed below:
