Embedded AI is setting new standards in production technology. The continuous development of this technology will play a key role in competitiveness and innovation. With intelligent sensors, you can set new standards, stand out from the competition and create USPs that cannot be ignored. At the same time, you can produce more efficiently and economically while improving quality and providing more flexible service.
Embedded AI for automotive applications is real-time capable and can therefore react immediately. It reduces the load on the vehicle’s decentralized computing unit. When embedded AI is used for driver monitoring and passenger surveillance, sensor data is processed directly, ensuring maximum privacy protection.

Ensure maximum driving safety in vehicles with embedded AI
- Driver monitoring: Embedded AI for automotive applications combined with sophisticated sensor technology forms the basis for comprehensive occupant monitoring. This ranges from fatigue and emotion detection to health monitoring (e.g., in the event of a heart attack or stroke) and accident management. In the event of an unavoidable accident, the vehicle can be controlled in such a way as to minimize personal injury. In the worst-case scenario, automated emergency calls can be made.
- Predictive maintenance: AI-based monitoring of the powertrain provides early warning of wear and tear and prevents serious damage.
- Data reduction: Embedded AI reduces the load on the vehicle’s central processing unit. Real-time capability is particularly important for autonomous driving.
- Environment analysis: The vehicle’s environment can also be recorded and monitored using AI and sensors. This allows, for example, the quality of the road surface to be assessed and the shock absorbers to be adjusted accordingly.
- EOL with ultrasonic sensors: In engine manufacturing, AI-based end-of-line testing using ultrasound can ensure the quality of individual components and complex assemblies. Robustification or replacement of existing sensor technology that is not reliable in dynamic driving conditions. This starts with oil sensors and ends with seat belt technology.
