Well, all of these technologies are now available on the 2013 Nissan Altima using just one camera.

“This first-of-its-kind innovation means that the camera is equipped with a wide-angle lens to see more, and sophisticated software to accomplish more advanced functions,” Nissan said in a statement.

“What’s very neat is that typically these technologies require extra hardware. So that’s what typically makes this technology expensive and isolated to luxury class vehicles. So for the first time we are bringing this technology to the mid-sized sedan segment, especially lane departure warning and moving object detection,” said Vishnu Jayamohan, Nissan Product Planning and Advanced Strategy.
