Automated Driving

Steer-by-wire for Automated Driving – Steering at the Highest Level

Steer-by-wire technology makes passenger cars safer, more comfortable, and more agile, but also simplifies interior designs. Only this technology enables automated driving at the higher SAE levels in an economical way. Bosch describes the upcoming change in steering systems without losing sight of market acceptance and technical challenges.
Automated Driving

Repair of Bumper Covers in Front of Radar Sensors

Radarsensors are an important element for automated driving. lf they are installed behind damaged bumpers, the error-free operation of driver assistance systems can be impaired by impact damage or unsuitable repairs. The KTI Automotive Technology Institute has investigated how suitable concepts can be developed and implemented to enable economically and ecologically sensible repairs.
Interview

pecific Work towards Software-defined Vehicles

The biggest hurdles to the widespread use of Al in the automotive world are complex conversion processes and high upfront investments. However, Axel Rogaischus, Vice President and Managing Director for Artificial lntelligence and Digitalization, IBM, expects software to form the core of passenger car manufacturers’ brand value by 2035. Costs could be reduced through partnerships, common standards, open source, and the use of Al.
Development

Polarized Head-up Display

The user experience in the vehicle is becoming increasingly important, as it has a significant impact on safety, long-term driver loyalty, and clear competitive differentiation. The once familiar analog cockpit is now evolving into a digital, context-sensitive, and connected command center. BMW uses the p-polarized head-up display technology from AGC Automotive for its Panoramic iDrive.
Artificial Intelligence

Al-powered Functional Testing for the Next Generation of Vehicles

In these days, development engineers in automotive industry navigate fragmented tool chains, manual reviews, and disconnected data sources. Each handover between requirements, test cases, execution, and reporting introduces delays and inconsistencies. AVL uses an approach with artificial intelligence to uniformly validate data from electric drives and assistance systems, create information on a one-time basis, and make functions available across all development phases.
Simulation I Testing

Testing of ADAS Functions on a Steerable ViL Full Vehicle Test Bench

The validation of automated driving functions on test benches is increasingly coming into focus in automotive development, even though computer simulations are available. The Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and IPG Automotive have jointly investigated the ADAS functions of a series-production vehicle on a full vehicle test bench with Vehicle-in-the-Loop (ViL) feature. They were able to provide evidence of the feasibility of testing such full vehicle functions on these test facilities.
Interior

Greater Safety in the Vehicle lnterior Thanks to Sensor Fusion

The combination of modern sensor technologies with new functions of artificial intelligence is revolutionizing safety in the automotive industry. Advanced monitoring systems in vehicle interiors will become mandatory for vehicle manufacturers in the future and significantly increase passenger safety, as they can either prevent accidents and other undesirable events or respond quickly to them. HTEC presents the state of art.
In The Spotlight

Sustainable interiors – from 3D to recycling to vegan

The use of sustainable materials in vehicle interiors is anything but trivial for the automotive industry. Although there are innovative approaches, requirements for safety, durability and cost-effectiveness make their widespread implementation difficult. Nevertheless, these approaches are worth exploring, especially since they are already gaining practical relevance in some cases.
Research I Sustainability

Data-based lnfrastructure for Circular Business Models

The Digital Product Passport is the central instrument through which EU requirements for a circular economy can be implemented. lt provides a standardized, machine-readable data foundation across the entire product life cycle and increases transparency, particularly in complex value chains. Within the PACE-DPP project, Virtual Vehicle Research, together with partners, identifies application areas, data requirements, regulatory interdependencies, and economic potential.
