The automotive industry is currently at the crossroads of a technological revolution, with ADAS standing as a beacon of innovation. However, the journey towards safer roads has encountered an unexpected obstacle — the global shortage of semiconductor chips. This presentation will discuss relationship between semiconductor components and ADAS, unraveling the profound impact of the shortage on OEMs and the consequent evolution of sourcing strategies.
At the heart of ADAS lies the relation between sensors and semiconductor chips. This presentation will explain the increasing role of semiconductor chips in cameras, radar, and LiDAR. We will compare the semiconductor content between these three main sensors. We will also explore the need of semiconductors for the computing needs to process data and put it in relation with the level autonomy of vehicles.
