Ford Blue Cruise

Ford BlueCruise is a driver-assist feature (a "hands-free highway driving feature") available on pre-approved Hands-Free Blue Zones, which are sections of split highways. Safe driving is “not” substituted by it. Driver-assist features are an addition to driving; they do not take the place of a driver's judgement, attention, or requirement for vehicle control.

Thermal Imaging Camera

A thermal imaging camera (TIC) is a device that uses infrared (IR) radiation to build a picture, much like a regular camera does with visible light. Every object emits a certain amount of infrared radiation depending on its temperature; the hotter the object, greater the amount of infrared radiation it emits. The variation in these emissions is the foundation of thermal imaging.
