Abstract
A driver assistance system of a vehicle includes a camera and a non-imaging sensor sensing forward of the equipped vehicle. The control, responsive to processing of captured image data and to processing of sensed sensor data, is operable to provide a driver assistance function. The control, responsive to processing of captured image data, detects the presence of a vehicle and determines a vision-based angle of the detected vehicle relative to the equipped vehicle. The control, responsive to processing of captured sensor data, detects the presence of the detected vehicle and determines a sensor-based angle of the determined vehicle relative to the equipped vehicle. The control determines an angle difference between the vision-based angle and the sensor-based angle. The control disables the driver assistance function at least in part responsive to the determined angle difference being greater than a disable threshold level.
