About EyeSight
� Continued from previous page
• Under the conditions listed below , it will become more difficult for the system to detect the vehicle in front , motorcycles , cyclists , pedestrians and obstacles on the road , and lane markers . Also , EyeSight may temporarily stop operating . However , the temporary stop will be canceled once these conditions have improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of time . - Bad weather ( for example heavy rain , a blizzard or thick fog ). In particular , the system is more likely to temporarily stop operating when there is an oil film adhering to the windshield , a glass coating has been applied , or poorly performing wipers are used .
- Strong light is coming from the front ( sunlight or headlight beams of oncoming traffic , etc .). - The windshield washer is in use . - Raindrops , water drops , or dirt on the windshield are not wiped off sufficiently .
- The windshield has become fogged , scratched or smeared , or snow , dirt , dust or frost has adhered to it , or it is otherwise affected . These will reduce the stereo camera ’ s field of view . Also , light is reflecting off the dirt , etc .
- The vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded cargo or other factors .
- Visibility is poor due to sand , smoke or water vapor blowing in the wind , or the front vision is obscured due to water splashes , snow , dirt or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic .
- The stereo camera ’ s field of view is obstructed ( for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle ). - Through the entrance or exit of a tunnel - The rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low , small or irregular ( for example a low bed trailer , etc .). - The obstacle is a fence , a wall or a shutter , etc . with a uniform pattern ( a striped pattern , brick , etc .) or with no pattern in front . - The obstacle is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front . - Driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does not have its taillights on
