DVN-I has covered IAQ and hygiene in recent editions, and the absolute need of a continuous environment and protection level along everyone’s daily lifeline, from home to office, through transportation, shopping, and all the rest. New levels of health concern amid the pandemic will push the industry to develop more human-centered, health-related features into cars…
Most modern driver-assistance systems require drivers to paying attention to the road and to many other screens and controls! Mercedes’ new capacitive steering wheel, arriving on the 2021 E-Class sedan, takes the steering wheel out of the equation, as it has capacitive hands-off detection. A two-zone sensor mat is located in the rim of the…
Weidplas, headquartered in Switzerland, have a new, powerful light simulation program called Optiback, to compute microstructures for 2D- and 3D-shaped light guides with an automatic optimization process for light effects. The result of this light simulation is a light guide with a highly efficient light output with a minimum number of LEDs. The packages of…
Structures for light activation are normally implemented on the surface of the light guides. Weidplas, from Switzerland, has researched and developed a technology to implement the light scattering structures with lasers into the volume of the light guides. With this technology the structures are protected in the volume against outer impacts and you can create…
Every two years, EuroNCAP—the European body that tests vehicle safety—updates and tightens up its test protocols. This year, several important changes come into effect, including 50 km/h frontal impact test evolution, the adoption of a movable deformable barrier, and use a new technologically more advanced test dummy that should be a little closer to reality.…
