Modern vehicles rely on a perfectly coordinated interplay of driving dynamics, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and navigation systems. Key sensors such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, GPS/GNSS receivers and IMUs provide critical data for lane-keeping, brake assist, collision avoidance and precise positioning.
Three areas, one mission: precision
- Vehicle dynamics
Measures physical vehicle movements (acceleration, braking, cornering behavior) – It is the foundation for all control and assistance systems. - ADAS
Uses vehicle dynamics data and environmental sensors (radar, camera, ultrasonic) to enhance safety and comfort. - Navigation systems
Combine GNSS/GPS with vehicle dynamics sensors such as INS for precise positioning and route guidance.
All three systems share and process sensor data – their integration is crucial for autonomous driving functions.

Why is calibration essential?
Millimetres and milliseconds can make all the difference - Even the smallest measurement errors can have a decisive impact on safety and performance in driving dynamics, ADAS and navigation systems. Incorrect measurements can result in erroneous assistance functions or hazardous driving conditions. Only sensors that are regularly calibrated deliver reliable and consistent data, which is a decisive factor for safety, legal compliance and development success. Precise measurements not only facilitate innovation, but also reduce error costs and enhance the reliability of your systems.
