Autonomous driving

Monitoring water ingress and humidity to make safe autonomous driving a reality

Shaping the future of driver autonomy

Due to the accelerating implementation of ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistance Systems) and AD (Autonomous Driving), new vehicles become increasingly dependent on advanced technologies. Water ingress and humidity pose critical issues, as they not only affect performance, but also pose a risk of corrosion to electronics over time. Vehicle manufacturers must find ways to ensure the functional safety of their systems. With the implementation of our sensor into ADAS, such as LiDAR or steer-by-wire, reliability and safety are guaranteed.

Reach SAE automation level 5 with our sensor technology

In order for vehicles to reach SAE automation levels 4 and 5, ADAS need to be completely reliable under all conditions and protected by fail-safe mechanisms. The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) is currently working on a legal framework to ensure this. With our sensors, the status of ADAS is constantly monitored to provide early detection of deterioration, preventing critical faults before they can occur. This way, we ensure that you can meet all upcoming regulations and safely achieve all SAE levels.
