Vehicle Lateral Control (Equipment Packages*)

This equipment package provides lateral control of a vehicle to allow "hands off" driving, automating the steering control function. It includes on-board systems that detect lanes and obstacles or vehicles to the sides of the vehicle. This sensor information is processed on board the vehicle, and appropriate steering control actions are maintained using steering actuators.
