Solutions

ADAS and automation systems utilize sensors to acquire critical vehicle data for safety systems such as automated cruise control, automated emergency braking, lane keep assist, advanced front lighting, windshield wiper control, automatic low and high beam switching, etc. Because the sensors are integral to safety systems, they must be ASIL Functional Safety (ISO-26262) and AEC-Q100 Grade 2 compliant.
