Magna ADAS package uses Uhnder’s patented radar chip.

New partnership will combine Spartan’s sensor software with Uhnder’s digital radar technology to create next-gen perception solutions to advance automated mobility.

The collaboration brings the first dedicated Snapdragon system-on-chip for Ultra Cruise data processing.

The sensor technology is designed to bridge some of the gap between current-generation radar and lidar – while retaining the traditional advantages of RF-based sensors.

The aerospace industry is facing immense challenges due to increased design complexity and higher levels of integration, particularly in the electrification of aircraft. These challenges can easily impact program cost and product time to market. System electrification and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) have become critical issues today. In the context of 3D electromagnetics, EMC electromagnetic compatibility ensures the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) that radiated emissions from various electronic devices, such as avionics or the entire aircraft for that matter, do not interfere with other electronic products onboard the aircraft.
