It boasts a complete regulatory compliance testing suite for global markets, real-time sensor fusion validation and a cloud-based homologation documentation management system. “This pivotal industry event gathers key stakeholders shaping future vehicle development and autonomy regulations,” said Applus Idiada marketing strategist Clara Martí. “We want to understand how our platform can address pain points in the development, testing and certification process, particularly for new ADAS functionalities and cross-border homologation requirements.” Meet the team at Booth 9420. intoPIX demos mezzanine compression dedicated to sensor data intoPIX is showcasing its solutions for transporting compressed video data over ethernet using TicoRAW technology for ADAS applications. The company is demonstrating efficient new ways to transmit and manage real-time video with automotive use cases, including reducing devices’ power consumption, complexity, memory and video bandwidth, and offering zero latency with lossless quality (down to 1 bit per pixel). “We hope to show OEMs and perception teams how sensors, cameras and ADAS systems benefit from intoPIX technologies” said Justine Hecq, leader of the automotive, machine vision and RAW camera technology group at intoPIX. Visit Booth 9128 to find out more. RoboSense displays next-gen advanced data acquisition, ground truth generation and validation toolchain RoboSense is highlighting a new version of its Reference system at the expo. According to the team, the system’s precise camera-lidar fusion and cutting-edge AI large-model algorithms enhance environmental perception and object detection capabilities, with improved target recognition. Other benefits include more detailed object classification, full-scene 3D reconstruction and BEV color map reconstruction. It also supports detection of roads, parking spaces, traffic lights and road signs. The system can evaluate complex scenarios, including indoor and outdoor parking facilities. See the Reference system at Booth 9600. Kognic’s intelligent co-pilots and auto-labeling technology reduce annotation time by 68% At this year’s expo, Kognic is showing the benefits of automated annotation compared with manual methods. By integrating automated and human-in-the-loop models, the company can enhance annotation productivity, ensuring high-quality datasets with reduced costs. Faster, more efficient annotations are enabled through leveraging model predictions to guide automation features. Quality is not compromised, making Kognic’s solution valuable for AI-driven data labeling. Find out more at Booth 9221. Gaia-X 4 PLC-AAD mini-conference reveals project results An exclusive mini-conference on the publicly funded Gaia-X 4 Product Life Cycle – Across Automated Driving (PLC-AAD) project , took place today on the Live Zone 1 stage. The project is developing an open and distributed data ecosystem to support the product lifecycle of automated driving functions according to Gaia-X standards. Featuring 10 speakers and eight presentations, the free-to-attend mini-conference was particularly popular with simulation and validation experts working on the continuous virtual validation of ADAS/AD functions; and HIL/SIL (hardware/software-in-the-loop) specialists focused on test environments for automated driving functions. Still to come The expo continues tomorrow, with lots of tech innovation to see on the show floor and plenty to learn about at the conference, including two panel discussions: ‘Driver control assistance systems (DCAS): are we going far enough?’ will feature contributors from University of Warwick, Wayve, BMW and the European Commission; ‘Scenarios: the ultimate challenge for standardization’ will include Taktech, Valeo, Applus Idiada, Renault and Japan Automobile Research Institute.
