“Until now, fish eye camera technology was used to assist drivers while parking by showing the vehicle from a bird’s eye perspective and the vehicle path while reversing,” said Continental Chassis & Safety Division Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Business Unit director, Wolfgang Fey.

“These include automatic brake intervention while reversing, a cross traffic assistant and automated parking.”
