Detect water ingress in real-time to ensure safety integrity

Ensuring system safety integrity

Tight sealing is the main defense against water ingress in safety-critical enclosures. Utilizing sensors for real-time detection provides a cost-effective secondary safety measure against water ingress.

Enable smart degradation

Smart degradation economically adds a third layer of vehicle redundancy. Condition monitoring of safety-critical systems (such as SbW) is crucial for assessing the probability of a second failure and thus enhancing overall resilience.

Meet vehicle manufacturer requirements

With the surge in autonomous vehicles and impending regulations, OEMs must take on more liability. This emphasizes the necessity for real-time water ingress detection mechanisms to ensure system reliability and compliance.
