Circuit Materials Improve ADAS Performance
Passengers’, occupants’, and pedestrians’ safety is an important objective for car manufacturers and their suppliers, and there is a strong desire to further improve assisted driving performance and reliability. As adoption rates increase, the number of safety features and onboard electronic systems per vehicle increase every year, requiring engineers to look for lightweight material solutions and greater design flexibility. SABIC is a global diversified chemical company that supports engineers in improving radar sensor technologies using materials that promote lightweight and metal replacement, overall system cost reductions, and greater design flexibility. Radar systems are an integral part of the ADAS sensor suite that supports features such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), and Forward Collison Warning (FCW). Radar sensors require material solutions that provide effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding of various system compon...
