Camera calibration method for safer autonomous vehicles
Autonomous vehicles watch the roads before them using inbuilt cameras. Ensuring that accurate camera orientation is maintained during driving is, therefore, key to letting these vehicles out on roads. Taking us one step closer to realising autonomous driving systems, scientists from Korea have developed a highly accurate and efficient camera orientation estimation method that will enable such vehicles to navigate safely across distances.
Linear Hall sensor for safety-critical applications
Melexis has announced the MLX91377 ASIL-ready Linear Hall sensor IC suitable for use in safety-critical automotive systems such as electric power-assisted steering (EPAS).
Podcast on GaN transistors and integrated circuits

Compact and affordable mass market 3D radar sensor
Cognitive Pilot, an autonomous driving technology joint venture of Russia’s Sberbank and Cognitive Technologies group, has presented its new, compact and affordable Cognitive Mini Radar sensor. The3D radar sensor is intended for mass use in the autonomous driving industry and already the device is in demand for fighting the coronavirus.
Sensors are at the heart of robotic mobility disruption
“Disruption is coming to our streets and cities”said Pierre Cambou, Principal analyst, Imaging, at Yole.“Mobility has defined the way humans have organised their society for ages and our world is currently being reimagined around a new generation of robotic vehicles. They appeared insignificant two years ago when we published our first report on the matter, today they are on the brink of changing the world as we know it."
