Combisensor From SensorDynamics

SensorDynamics has launched the SD755 micromechanical combisensor which integrates an automotive integrating gyrometer and accelerometer in a single package. Both sensors transmit their signals over a shared SPI interface that facilitates further processing as well as minimising development time and system costs. The device is ideally suited for applications such as electronic stabilising systems in cars that match the actual road curvature with the angle lock. When there is a difference detected, single wh

RSSSensorDynamics has launched the SD755 micromechanical combisensor which integrates an automotive integrating gyrometer and accelerometer in a single package. Both sensors transmit their signals over a shared SPI interface that facilitates further processing as well as minimising development time and system costs. The device is ideally suited for applications such as electronic stabilising systems in cars that match the actual road curvature with the angle lock. When there is a difference detected, single wheels are systematically slowed down to avoid skidding. Evaluation boards are available.

    Bosch has revealed that its driver drowsiness detection system, first introduced as a standard feature in 2010, in the new Volkswagen Passat is being fitted to the new Passat Alltrack. Fatigue and microsleep at the wheel are often the cause of serious accidents. However, the initial signs of fatigue can be detected before a critical situation arises, and the Bosch system can do this by monitoring steering movements and advising drivers to take a break in time. The required information is provided either by
