EMERGING SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES ARE CRUCIAL IN DEFINING THE FUTURE OF AUTONOMOUS DRIVING

How has sensor technology evolved to enhance the overall performance of auto components?

Sensors play an essential role in today’s auto component industry. They monitor engine performance, emissions, and fuel usage. With this widespread sensor integration, manufacturers are now able to offer vehicles that prioritise safety, fuel efficiency and driving comfort. In future, vehicles will offer a real-time comprehension of both the external surroundings and the behaviour of their occupants. Therefore, the future of the automotive industry will be heavily influenced by sensor technologies.

How TVS Sensing Solutions are driving advancements in safety, performance, efficiency, and connectivity with advanced sensor technology?

The key driving factor is the rising demand for better safety and security in vehicles. Government regulations are promoting adoption of automotive sensors in various vehicle systems like body control, power steering, temperature regulation and antilock braking. These features are gradually becoming standard in vehicles, encouraging sensor manufacturers to include them as common options in their product offerings.

For example, our Active Wheel Speed Sensor is a key auto component that monitors the speed of a vehicle’s wheel. It is important for the anti-lock braking system, using the sensor to prevent skidding during sudden stops and thereby improving control and road safety.

What role do sensors play in optimising the fuel efficiency of various auto components, and what improvements have been observed?
