Quick overview-Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P)
Sensors
TSS-P combines an in-vehicle camera mounted in front of the inside rear view mirror
and a millimeter-wave radar mounted in the front grill. These sensors support the
driver assist systems.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P) is a set of active safety technologies designed
to help mitigate or prevent collisions across a wide range of traffic situations, in
certain conditions. TSS-P is designed to help support the driver’s awareness,
decision making and vehicle operation contributing to a safe driving experience.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for operation, setting adjustments, limitations and
more details to understand these functions and complete safety precautions. For
more information, please go to http://www.toyota.com/safety-sense
Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist function (LDA w/SA) LDA w/SA is designed to provide notification when the system detects an unintended lane departure.
The Steering Assist function is designed to provide small corrective steering inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help keep the vehicle in its lane.
Automatic High Beams (AHB)AHB is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and the tail lights of preceding vehicles and switch between high beams and low beams as appropriate.
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection function (PCS w/PD)PCS w/PD is designed to provide alert, mitigation, and/or avoidance support in certain conditions, when the system detects a potential collision with a preceding vehicle is likely to occur.
Advanced millimeter-wave radar sensor system is designed
to work with the camera sensor to help recognize a preceding
pedestrian, and provide an alert, mitigation and/or avoidance
support in certain conditions.
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) DRCC is designed to help maintain a pre-set distance to a preceding vehicle when the preceding vehicle is traveling at a lower speed.
