Display in the touch screen then in the instrument panel
The display of traffic signs is done in the
following two phases:
- All new recognised traffic signs are
displayed in the touch screen in the form
of a popup for 40 seconds.
- These traffic signs are then displayed in
the instrument panel.
The system can display two traffic signs
(speed limit and no overtaking) in parallel in
the two dedicated zones of the instrument
panel.
If an additional traffic sign is detected, such
as one for a reduced speed limit when the
road is wet, this is displayed in an empty
window below the corresponding sign.
Additional traffic signs are filtered as follows:
- Signs related to snow or ice are
displayed only if the ambient
temperature is below 3°C.
- Signs related to snow, rain or fog are
displayed only if the wipers are on and
the ambient temperature is below 3°C.
- Signs related to heavy goods vehicles
are only displayed if they apply to
vehicles weighing less than 4 tonnes.
- Signs related to farm vehicles are not
displayed.
Principles
Using the camera located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects and reads
speed limit and no overtaking traffic signs
and signs that indicate the end of these
restrictions.
