Navigation, Real Time Alert Reduce collisions, Visible/NIR (Near-Infrared) cameras, LIDAR, Active and passive infrared systems, Adaptive Driving Beam, Optical components:
Photodiodes and thermopiles, Head-Up display, autonomous systems.

– Technologies for the exterior of the car.
Gesture recognition and proximity detection, Head Lighting, near- field- projection.
– Technologies for the interior of the car
Cameras, Spectroscopy, THz, Interior Lighting, MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport), Displays, Child safety, Monitoring car systems.
