Bosch, the world's largest automotive supplier, has awarded Huber + Suhner a contract to manufacture and supply radar antennas for automated driving.

The antennas are used in radar sensors for assisted and automated driving, a vital plank of mapping a vehicle's surroundings for safe operation.

Huber + Suhner says its 3D antenna technology, based on metallised plastic, "plays a decisive role in ensuring that driver assistance systems can detect the position, relative speed and direction of movement of other road users and objects from a long distance and even at high speeds with the utmost reliability". 

The company says it can offer Bosch everything from one source, from engineering to series production.

    The German AKTIV project is researching several cooperative driving applications for use in work zones. PTV's Michael Ortgiese details progress. The steep increases in traffic volumes predicted back in the early 1990s have unfortunately been proven to be more than accurate. In Germany, the AKTIV project continues to look into cooperative technologies' potential to reduce the impact of those increased traffic volumes and keep traffic moving despite limitations in infrastructure capacity.
