Adaptive cruise control (ACC) is a type of advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) that uses sensors and radar technology to automatically maintain a set distance from the vehicle ahead, adjusting the vehicle's speed to match the flow of traffic.
ACC systems typically use a combination of radar and cameras to track the distance and speed of the vehicle ahead. The radar sensor is located in the front of the vehicle and sends out radio waves that bounce off of other objects. The camera is located behind the windshield and captures images of the road ahead.
The ACC system uses the information from the radar and camera sensors to calculate the distance and speed of the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead gets too close, the ACC system will automatically apply the brakes to maintain the set distance. If the vehicle ahead speeds up, the ACC system will automatically accelerate to match the speed.
ACC systems can be very helpful in reducing driver fatigue and stress, especially on long road trips. They can also help to prevent accidents by automatically maintaining a safe distance between vehicles
