Automotive PEG
The Automotive Product Emulator identifies those automotive application needs that may be met most successfully with integrated photonics. The integrated photonic systems applications considered in this emulator are:
- Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) utilizing integrated photonic technology in Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) systems (LIDAR is a remote sensing method that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to measure ranges)
- Photonic sensors for a wide range of applications
- Optical Local Area Networks (OLAN)
The two main factors that distinguish the Automotive Product Sector Emulator from the other IPSR product emulators are:
- The environment in which the product must perform
- The possibility of disruptive technology change to electric power and ADAS
