System Description

Description
- Install the corner sensor on the front bumper and rear bumper. It detects the obstacles around the vehicle when the around view monitor is displayed. It warns of the approach to the obstacles with the buzzer and indicator in the display linked with the around view monitor system.
- It displays the distance between the bumper and obstacle with the color of sonar indicator in the display and the blinking cycle of indicator in 3 stages.
- The buzzer warns of the distance to the obstacles with the cycle in 3 stages.

System operation description
- Around view monitor control unit transmits the sonar operation signal via AV communication to sonar control unit to control the operation of sonar indicator and sonar buzzer.
- Sonar control unit that receives the sonar operation signal from around view monitor control unit transmits the detection signal and detection distance signal according to the signal from corner sensor via AV communication to around view monitor control unit. around view monitor control unit operates the applicable sonar indicator.
- Sonar control unit that receives the sonar operation signal from around view monitor control unit outputs the buzzer signal to other buzzers based on the detection distance signal from corner sensor to operate the buzzer.
- Sonar control unit has the diagnosis function. It can detect the corner sensor malfunction or sensor harness open circuit. It transmits the diagnosis results to around view monitor control unit and always displays the sonar indicator in red to inform the user.

Obstacle detection distance
- Sonar control unit changes the outputs of the sonar indicator and warning buzzer in 3 stages according to the obstacle detection distance from the corner sensor.
- The sonar control unit can change the setting of obstacle detection distance in 4 stages.









SONAR INDICATOR DISPLAY
- Around view monitor control unit that receives the detection signal and detection distance signal from sonar control unit displays the sonar indicator on display.
- Around view monitor control unit changes the color or blinking cycle of the indicator according to the detection distance.






SONAR BUZZER OPERATION
- Sonar control unit outputs the buzzer signal to other buzzers and operates the buzzer when the detection signal is input from the corner sensor.
- It changes the buzzer cycle in 3 stages according to the detection distance.
