## Description

Driver Assistance System converts your mobile device into a comprehensive driving assistant, integrating multiple advanced features to enhance road safety and convenience. It includes a Dash Cam that records high-resolution videos (up to 1080p) even when running in the background, with intelligent disk space management and shock-detected video locking.

The extension offers lane tracking powered by augmented reality to visually detect lanes and alert you during lane changes through sound and visual warnings. Its anti-collision system detects vehicles ahead and calculates the approaching speed, warning you to prevent accidents. Additional features include a highway follow mode to help track leading vehicles, speed display in km/h or miles/h, and alerts for fixed and traffic light radar locations. These functionalities make it a versatile tool for safer and more informed driving experiences.
