Extending BMW’s automated driving capabilities into challenging environments
An engineering priority: maximising GNSS receiver reliability
For hands-free driving to be safe everywhere, the GNSS receiver must provide the necessary sensitivity to ensure accurate absolute positioning. This is crucial for the optimal performance of relative ADAS sensors like LiDAR, radar, and camera systems.
Manuel del Castillo, VP of FocalPoint, outlines why accurate GNSS could be the key to extending the availability of automated driving for BMW and invites discussion with key stakeholders.
