What Is Windshield Calibration?
Windshield calibration or what is officially call ADAS calibration is the process of adjusting and testing all the cameras and sensors on the windshield to make sure that they are all working up to manufacturer specs. The calibration process is done by a trained technician just like the auto glass experts at Patriot Auto Glass. The technician uses specialized equipment to calibrate the cameras and sensors. Patriot Auto Glass only utilizes the very best equipment when we calibrate our customer’s windshields which is why we choose to use Autel’s calibration systems. Autel is the industry leader in providing the highest quality windshield calibration systems.
