As computer vision based systems like lane tracking,
face tracking and obstacle detection mature an enhanced
range of driver assistance systems are becoming
feasible.

This paper introduces a list of core competencies
required for a driver assistance system, the issue of
building in robustness is highlighted in contrast to leaving
such considerations to a later product development
phase. We then demonstrate how these issues may be
addressed in driver assistance systems based primarily
on computer vision. The underlying computer vision
systems are discussed followed by an example of
a driver support application for lane keeping based on
force-feedback through the steering wheel.
