Leading automobile supplier ZF has introduced Smart Camera 6 for automated driving and ADAS systems. Smart Camera 6 features a 120-degree field of view, more than 4x higher image resolution (8-megapixels) from the previous generation and greater processing power to enable advanced functions. The Smart Camera 6 utilizes the latest generation EyeQ6 processor from Mobileye, an Intel Company, a recognized leader in vison-based systems and environmental perception and a long-time strategic supplier to ZF since 2008 when ZF introduced its first-generation camera.The Smart Camera 6 is over-the-air update capable to enhance performance and enable new functions to allow for system upgrades. It is also fully ASIL B compliant supporting system architectures to help deliver high-level functional safety standards and meet the specific requirements of global OEMs.As the demands for more sophisticated features and functions increase utilizing advanced E/E architectures, ZF is meeting these industry demands with its Image Processing Module systems that are also based on EyeQ6 processors. The systems are fully scalable from a single satellite camera input up to 12 satellite camera inputs as well as multiple radar, ultrasonic or LiDAR sensors. This allows features including AEB and Pedestrian AEB, VACC, Camera/Radar Fusion, 3D surround view, Driver Monitoring and Interior Monitoring, e-Mirror and integration of ZF ADAS and/or OEM algorithms supporting full-featured driving functionality from L2/L2+ to L3, advanced Driver and Interior Monitoring and Automated Parking.These systems can also reduce the number of discrete ECUs for ADAS/AD systems, enhance vehicle-level software testing and validation, reduce system weight and simplify the assembly process. They also utilize black-box software integration and are Autosar compliant, cybersecure capable, and utilize Ethernet / CAN interfaces.
