HELLA GmbH & Co. KGaA announced that it will display its latest technologies that not only enable higher levels of autonomous driving, but also allow OEMs and drivers the freedom to create more customized vehicles, At the 2018 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). The company will showcase its multifunctional SHAKE (Structural Health and Knock Emission) sensor and innovations in car body lighting design as well as other autonomous vehicle advancements that allow visitors to "Experience Tomorrow" via its AutoMobili-D demo vehicle and booth, Jan. 14-21, in Detroit'sCobo Center. The SHAKE technology's three optional functions are: intelligent Damage Detection: detects the severity, time and place of vehicle damage, including scratches, dents and paint damage. It then records the incidents to create damage reports for owners and mobility companies, who may use autonomous vehicles in car-sharing applications. Adaptive Impact Detection: uses two sensors, located on the front and rear of vehicles, to detect the slightest touches of cars or pedestrians to the vehicle's bumpers at speeds up to approximately 12 mph. The sensors also can trigger a signal to stop vehicles to prevent further damage, and detect contact and perform an emergency stop if any collision with obstructions occurs during parking. Smart Touch Detection: offers drivers individual convenience and safety features by allowing them to control autonomous vehicles with the touch of their hand.
