Camera and Sensor Cleaning: Clear View Guaranteed

• Cleaning system cleans sensors and cameras on the vehicle autonomously
• Function of driver assistance systems is thus ensured in wind and weather

Continental presents an innovative, automatic cleaning system for sensor and camera units on the vehicle. Sensors and cameras, which are required for various automated driving functions, independently monitor the degree of contamination. If, for example, the lens of a "Fisheye" camera, which is used as an exterior rear-view mirror replacement, is soiled by rain, dust, or snow, it is automatically cleaned by a waterjet. Cleaning water is directed from a built-in reservoir to a nozzle on the camera, which them cleans the lens. To ensure that this system works without any problems even in the frosty winter, the cleaning water is mixed with antifreeze.
