Travel Direction

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Infiniti M45. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Change in the travel direction of the vehicle is calculated by a gyroscope (angular velocity sensor) and a GPS antenna (GPS information). As the gyroscope and GPS antenna have both merit and demerit, input signals from them are prioritized in each situation. However, this order of priority may change in accordance with more detailed travel conditions so that the travel direction is detected more accurately.
