Haas, Roland Erik / Bhattacharjee, Shambo / Möller, Dietmar P. F.

Abstract The automotive industry is facing an unprecedented era of change (Koehler and Wollschlaeger in The digital transformation of the automobile—Five megatrends which are changing the industry, Media-Manufaktur GmbH, 2014; Möller and Haas in Guide to automotive connectivity and cybersecurity—Trends, technologies, innovations and applications, Springer, Berlin 2019; Broy in The danger is in the speed with which things are changing (in German), ATZ elektronik, Springer, Berlin, 2015; https://cci.car-it.com/download/CCI_2015_Web.pdf , URL2 2016). While acceleration, top speed, horsepower, and design were the most important criteria for buying a car in the past, electronics and software innovations are the defining criteria of tomorrow (Dunker and Bretting in Times are changing, Automotive IT, German, pp. 46–49, 2016). Advanced Driver Assistance Sytems (ADAS) are a major driver of innovation in the automotive domain and require sophisticated E/E platforms and new software architectures. The chapter gives a brief overview of these architectures, discusses object detection and sensor fusion and presents parking assistance systems as an important application area for ADAS. Some of the major challenges of Automomous Driving are being outlined before finally discussing the specific market requirements and hurdles for ADAS in the Indian market context.
