Widening the Horizons of Autonomous Driving with Advanced Driver Assistance Technology
Widening the Horizons of Autonomous Driving with Advanced Driver Assistance Technology
As urbanization and population ageing continues, traffic accident reduction, alleviation of traffic congestion and reduction of environmental load have become important topics not only for the automotive industry but for society as a whole. Recently, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) has emerged as a milestones in the pursuit of these objectives, and as the functions that make up ADAS are becoming increasingly widespread, fully autonomous driving stands on the horizon as the next frontier that will change the way we drive. Current ADAS supported driving is expected to gradually shift towards less human driver participation and eventually evolve into completely autonomous driving with the advent of combined and integrated driver assistance functions.
At the Nidec group we combine the capabilities of our individual companies to shape the future of autonomous driving with advanced sensing devices and recognition algorithms—the keys to bridging the gap between ADAS and fully autonomous driving.
