“Innovative Sensor Technologies”
- Companies are developing advanced sensor technologies to meet the growing demand for high-resolution imaging and real-time data processing. For instance, in 2024, Sony Semiconductor Solutions introduced the ISX038, the industry's first CMOS image sensor for automotive cameras capable of simultaneously processing and outputting RAW and YUV images.
- The adoption of cloud technologies facilitates scalable and flexible deployment of automotive sensor and camera systems. Cloud-based platforms allow for efficient data storage, processing, and analysis, supporting features like over-the-air updates and remote diagnostics.
- In January 2025, Bosch introduced the AI-based MPC3 multifunctional camera at CES 2025. This camera combines traditional image processing algorithms with AI technologies to recognize objects and people, as well as differentiate between the road and its edges, aiding in lane-keeping.
- The growing complexity of sensor fusion makes calibration difficult during vehicle servicing. Valeo noted this issue in their 2024 ADAS system diagnostics update.
