As vehicle technology evolves, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are becoming standard across an increasing number of makes and models. These systems play a critical role in road safety by helping to prevent accidents and reduce driver error. Whether it’s lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control (ACC), or automatic emergency braking, ADAS uses high-precision sensors, radars, and cameras—many of which are mounted on or around the windshield.
At Tech Savvy Automotive, a certified NOVUS Glass location in Brantford, we specialize in ADAS system calibration, advanced windshield repair, and expert camera alignment services. We support a wide range of vehicles, including those with autonomous vehicle features and the latest ADAS features that monitor and react in real time.
What is ADAS and Why Calibration Matters
Driver assistance systems (ADAS) are designed to alert the driver, assist in decision-making, and in some cases, even control the vehicle. Common systems include:
- Lane keeping assistance
- Blind spot detection
- Collision warning and impending collision alerts
- Adaptive cruise control (ACC)
- Automatic emergency braking
These safety features rely on forward-facing cameras and sensors that require precise alignment. After events like windshield replacement, front-end repairs, or suspension adjustments, those sensors may become misaligned. Without proper ADAS calibration, your vehicle may send incorrect signals, or fail to warn the driver entirely.

To meet the unique needs of ADAS-equipped vehicles, Tech Savvy Automotive is proud to offer an exclusive innovation: the NOVUS ADAS Windshield Repair Resin.

- Repair chips and cracks without removing the windshield
- Avoid expensive windshield replacement and recalibration
- Preserve the vehicle’s original camera alignment and OEM fit
- Support the uninterrupted function of ADAS features
This offers a cost-effective auto glass solution that doesn’t compromise your vehicle’s critical safety features.
When Do You Need ADAS Calibration?
Your vehicle will likely require ADAS system calibration if you’ve had:
- A cracked windshield replaced
- Front-end collision damage or airbag deployment
- Suspension or steering repairs
- Camera, sensor, or radar replacement
Even a slight shift in camera position can prevent systems like lane departure warning, collision warning, or blind spot detection from functioning accurately.
Our ADAS Calibration Process
Tech Savvy Automotive uses manufacturer-approved procedures for both static and dynamic calibrations, depending on your vehicle’s design. Our process includes:
- Diagnostic scan to detect existing fault codes
- Target board setup and measurement for sensor alignment
- Static calibration in-shop or dynamic calibration through a monitored test drive
- Final verification of all driver assistance systems (ADAS)
We ensure that all systems are restored to OEM standards, so they continue to function in real-time during your daily driving tasks.
