Night Vision Assist

It is found on some premium cars. Images appear in the instrument cluster or head-up display. Some systems highlight detected pedestrians. The display usually shows a black-and-white thermal image, and the system can warn with a symbol or sound when a person or large animal is near the car's path. Its range is greater than that of low-beam headlights, which helps on unlit country roads. It is an aid and does not replace careful driving at night.

A thermal camera detects heat radiated from living beings.

The driver must still watch the road. The camera must be kept clean.
