2023 Honoree Award

Road Surface Detection & Early Intuitive Warning Software

Nexteer Automotive & Tactile Mobility
  • 2023 Honoree in Vehicle Tech & Advanced Mobility
This software solution advances lifesaving steering safety by enhancing a vehicle’s “awareness” of its environment & early warning communication to the driver through steering feel. Our software fuses two algorithms: A steering-based analytical algorithm & a data-driven, machine-learned algorithm. The resulting “virtual sensor” data is transmitted to a cloud service that communicates upcoming danger to trailing vehicles. When the vehicle is notified of an upcoming slippery surface, software will mimic the steering feel of a slippery surface before reaching the actual slippery road. Giving a heads-up through steering feel influences the driver to intuitively reduce vehicle speed and drive safer.
