Autonomous Driving and ADAS Categories
-
Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS)
Advanced driver-assistance systems are technologies that assist drivers with tasks such as parking and driving. Advanced driver-assistance systems have different levels of assistance, with basic levels being functions such as adaptive cruise control or emergency brake assist. These systems use internal and external cameras, sensors, mapping tools, radar lidar and sonar.
-
AV Fleet Operations
This category covers the software and services used to manage autonomous vehicles in deployment. That includes remote monitoring and teleoperation platforms, fleet management systems, over-the-air update tools, data logging and retrieval infrastructure, and safety case management, for commercial operators running mixed or fully autonomous fleets.
-
Drive-by-Wire & Actuation
This category covers the hardware and control systems that execute software-generated commands at the vehicle level. Products include steer-by-wire, brake-by-wire and throttle-by-wire systems, along with the actuators, controllers and safety monitoring components used in prototype builds and series-production autonomous platforms.
-
HD Maps & Localisation
This category covers high-definition map creation, hosting and update platforms, GNSS and IMU-based positioning systems, and SLAM tools that enable centimetre-level vehicle localisation. Products and services here support map data capture, validation and delivery pipelines for AV testing environments and production deployment.
-
Path Planning & Decision Making
This category covers the software and middleware that determine how a vehicle moves through its environment. That includes route and trajectory planning, behaviour prediction, obstacle avoidance and decision logic, delivered as embedded software, cloud-based development tools or open-source frameworks for ADAS and autonomous vehicle programmes.
-
Perception & Sensor Fusion
Products and services in this category include cameras, lidar, radar and ultrasonic sensors, alongside the software that combines their data into a unified environmental model. Calibration tools, sensor validation platforms and edge-processing hardware for real-time inference are also covered, for both passenger vehicle and commercial vehicle applications.
