The Volkswagen Group is working with Valeo and Mobileye to upgrade the advanced driver assistance systems to up to Level 2+ (‘advanced semi-automated driving’) in its upcoming vehicle range based on the MQB platform. This cooperation, which will be implemented over the next few years, will increase safety and driving comfort in high-volume vehicles and fulfil both customer expectations and regulatory requirements.
The new system has a 360-degree ring of several cameras and radar sensors as well as software-controlled functions. This enables hands-free driving on authorised roads, intelligent parking and improved safety for vehicle occupants and pedestrians. Valeo supplies high-performance ECUs, sensors and parking solutions, while Mobileye provides its Surround ADAS™ platform, which includes the EyeQ™6 High processor and mapping technologies. For the first time, these components are integrated into a single system, replacing multiple ECUs with one centralised unit. This increases efficiency and system performance and enables over-the-air updates to adapt to changing safety standards.
‘At Valeo, we are committed to driving innovation in driver assistance technology. We are pleased to partner with Mobileye to offer this complete, cost-effective and state-of-the-art solution for advanced driving functions to Volkswagen and its end customers,’ said Marc Vrecko, CEO of the Valeo Brain Division.
‘By working with Valeo and the Volkswagen Group, this integrated approach of software and hardware brings AI innovation to the real world,’ said Prof Amnon Shashua, President and CEO of Mobileye. ‘By optimising efficiency and cost while enhancing safety and comfort features in driver assistance, this system paves the way for a new class of driving technologies.’
