Speed limit detection with No
Passing Information
The concept
Speed limit detection
Speed limit detection uses a symbol in the
shape of a traffic sign to display the currently
detected speed limit. The camera at the base of
the interior rearview mirror detects traffic signs
at the edge of the road as well as variable dis‐
plays of sign gantries. Traffic signs with extra
symbols, e. g. during wet road conditions, are
also detected and compared with vehicle inte‐
rior data, e. g. the rain sensor and are displayed
depending on the situation. The system consid‐
ers the information stored in the navigation sys‐
tem and also displays speed limits present on
routes without signs.
No Passing Information
No Passing Information displays in the instru‐
ment cluster the beginnings and ends of no
passing zones detected by the camera. The sys‐
tem accounts for only the beginnings and ends
of No Passing zones marked by signs.
No display is shown:
▷In countries where No Passing zones are
primarily identified with road markings.▷On routes without signage.▷Where there are railroad crossings, highway
markings or other situations where no sig‐
nage is present, but passing would not be
permitted.
Switching on/off
1."Settings"2."Info display"3."Speed limit information"
If speed limit detection is switched on, it can be
