| Advancements in vehicle electrification, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and connectivity are driving design engineers to reimagine system architectures in vehicles. Until recently, automotive systems primarily used distributed ECUs - all throughout the vehicle - to control discrete functions. Today, an explosion of data captured inside and outside of the vehicle and the much larger role software plays because of how it uses data to develop new features or system capabilities has made distributed ECU models inadequate. |

| According to the Department of Transport, a town with 200 electric buses could reduce its CO2 emissions by around 7,400 tonnes a year. That would be equal to taking 3,600 diesel cars off the road. The environmental incentives are obvious, so why not full charge ahead? Here, Roger Brereton, Head of Sales at Pailton Engineering, explains some of the technological barriers to the widespread adoption of electric buses. |

| Against a background of the increased application of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in vehicles, Ricardo has published a whitepaper investigating the market for LiDAR technology in such systems. In particular, the paper focuses on a new, lower-cost solution that may be disruptive to the market for vision-based sensor and real time spatial mapping systems. |

| FEV has supported Uniper from ideation to Proof of Concept (PoC) of the Mobile Fast Charging Solution (MFC), an innovative charging infrastructure approach. One prerequisite for the successful transition of e-mobility from niche to mass is an efficient charging infrastructure. However, especially at places with fluctuating charging demand, operators are reluctant to install stationary charging stations given the lacking business case. |

| Magnetic materials are key to producing electric vehicles. Many of the electric vehicles on the market use kilograms of magnetic materials to drive their electric motors. In fact, over 80% of electric cars sold globally utilised permanent magnet-based motors in 2019. These magnets are typically made with rare-earth materials such as neodymium and dysprosium, which have a very geographically constrained supply chain. |
