Also on the horizon is continued momentum

such as cameras and sensors more frequently over
the next several years.

In the meantime, technicians
need to know what is involved with
the ADAS systems that are already

" Let's say a technician is doing
some body repair, " Freeman
relates. " Will the technician have
to recalibrate the sensors? If a technician is replacing a windshield,
will he or she have to recalibrate
the camera? If so, what software
and other equipment might be
needed to do that? Right now, there
is some conflicting information out
there. Some dealers, for example,
say there is no need to recalibrate
the camera. However, there is a
camera reset procedure in the
