Road Sign AssistRSA (Road Sign Assist)Toyota Safety Sense 4.0
RSA (Road Sign Assist)RSA (Road Sign Assist)The RSA system detects specific road signs using the front camera and/or navigation
system (when speed limit information is available) and notifies the driver via displays
and buzzers.Warning:For safe useDriving safely is solely the responsibility of the driver. Pay careful attention to
the surrounding conditions in order to ensure safe driving.The RSA assists the driver by providing road sign information, but it is not a replacement
for the driver’s own vision and awareness.Situations in which the RSA should not be usedWhen it is necessary to disable the system: When it is necessary to disable the systemSituations in which the system may not operate properlySituations in which the sensors may not operate properly: Situations in which the sensors and the systems may not operate properlyDisplay functionWhen a traffic sign is detected, the sign will be displayed on the display.Multiple signs can be displayed.Depending on other functions, displayed status may be limited.RSA and other functions (such as the navigation system) may display different sign
information.Note:Operating conditions of the display functionSigns will be displayed when the following conditions are met:The system has detected a signSigns will be disappear when the following conditions are met:When the vehicle has traveled a certain distance after passing the signWhen the system determines that the road being driven on has changed, such as after
a left or right turnSituations in which the display function may not operate properlyIn the following situations, the RSA system may not operate properly and may not detect
signs or may display the incorrect sign.When a sign is dirty, faded, tilted or bentWhen there is a reflected light or shadow on a traffic signWhen the contrast of an electronic sign is lowWhen all or part of a sign is hidden by a tree, utility pole, etc.When there are trees, utility poles, buildings, or signboards behind a traffic signWhen it is difficult to recognize a traffic sign by the front camera due to sunlight,
reflected light, or the headlights of another vehicleWhen it is difficult to recognize a traffic sign by the front camera due to bad weather
such as heavy rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, blizzards, etc.When a sign is detected by the front camera for a short amount of time (such as when
a nearby sign suddenly becomes visible while turning left or right)When the driving state (turning, changing lanes, etc.) is judged incorrectlyWhen a sign is immediately after a freeway junction or in an adjacent lane just before
mergingWhen a traffic sign is located far from the vehicleWhen an object similar to the system compatible traffic sign is detected (such as
signs, electric signs, signboards, buildings, preceding vehicles with stickers, or
directory signs with numbers)When a sign for a frontage road is within detection range of the front cameraWhen driving around a roundaboutWhen a traffic sign for other vehicles such as signs for large vehicles is detectedWhen a sign has a supplemental sign (end point, day of week, time of day, etc.)When there is a sign within a traffic restricted area, such as a roadworks areaWhen there are non-standard or recently introduced signsWhen the navigation system map data is out of dateWhen the navigation system cannot be usedCaution functionIn the following situations, the RSA system will output a caution to notify the driver.If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed warning threshold of the speed limit sign displayed
on the display, the sign display will flash and a buzzer will sound.When the RSA system detects a no-entry sign (do not enter sign) and determines that
the vehicle has entered a no-entry area, the no-entry sign (do not enter sign) displayed
on the display will flash and a buzzer will sound.Note:Operating conditions of the caution functionSpeed limit caution functionThis function will operate when all of the following conditions are met:A speed limit sign is recognized by the systemThe vehicle speed exceeds the displayed speed limit by a certain amountNo entry caution functionThis function will operate when all of the following conditions are met:Two or more no entry signs are recognized by the system simultaneouslyThe vehicle is passing between no entry signs recognized by the systemTypes of road signs supportedThe following types of objects can be displayed.
Speed limit
Do Not Enter
