 Automotive Obstacle Detection Systems
Market Analysis of Ultrasonic, Radar, Lidar, and Camera-Based Automotive Safety Technology
Automotive safety has taken a back seat recently due to the rise in fuel prices focusing more attention on economy. But safety remains an important factor for both consumers and governments around the world. Vehicle crashes continue to account for a large number of lives lost each year, despite considerable improvements in occupant protection. So what are manufacturers doing to help reduce the number of collisions? Which of the competing technologies offers the best performance, and which is likely to dominate the market in the long term?
This report provides an analysis of global market trends, technological evaluations of different approaches used by system developers, and discussion of existing product announcements. Obstacle detection sensor forecasts are provided globally, by region, through 2013.
