Strange question....

Can anyone confirm that this object (which has a lens on the front) is the camera part of the PCS system on our GS?

It is too "factory" to be a dashcam (sharing mount with the rear view mirror, no card slot, etc) and yet for a system like PCS it looks rather like an afterthought (compare to the Volvo City Safety camera setup - 2009-comparo-vus-i13.jpg where everything is masked/shrouded and covered up  on the inside). 

 

That said, the lump on top of the steering column also looks rather an afterthought too...

Though I don't have PCS, I thought the radar sensor was located behind the front Lexus badge.

I have no idea what this might be.

PCS on the pre-facelift models just uses radar behind the front grille.

I believe that camera is part of the automatic high beam system for the headlights.

If you have Lane Departure Alert, Road Sign Assist etc on the facelift models then you will have a camera mounted in that position but it will look more like the Volvo picture and PCS also uses it.

Thanks, that makes sense - we have AHB and LKA, but it is a pre facelift.
