Where is the Distance Sensor Located?

[Hazel]

Distance sensors are typically installed at the rear of the vehicle and consist of components such as ultrasonic sensors, controllers, and displays or buzzers. The distance sensor is used in adaptive cruise control systems to detect the distance between the vehicle ahead and the host vehicle, enabling follow-up functions that adjust speed (acceleration or deceleration) based on the leading vehicle's speed. As an input device for the vehicle's computer system, the distance sensor operates on the principle of "time-of-flight" to measure distances and detect object proximity. Its function is to convert various operational parameters during vehicle movement—such as speed, temperatures of different mediums, and engine operating conditions—into electrical signals for the computer, ensuring the engine operates in an optimal state.
