Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), which include LiDAR, radar, and cameras, are central to the evolution of autonomous driving. Lives depend on reliable ADAS performance. Yet, engineers face mounting challenges in thermal management, electromagnetic interference, and signal integrity that can mean the difference between dependable operation and system failure.
Today's ADAS components operate in increasingly compact configurations where heat buildup threatens performance, and EMI can distort high-frequency signals. Engineers must also mitigate unwanted reflections that create false radar targets. Meanwhile, cameras and sensors must enable consistent performance despite mechanical stress, vibration, and temperature extremes – all within ever-tightening space constraints.
Qnity’s advanced materials portfolio is designed to address these critical challenges. Specialized thermal interface materials efficiently dissipate heat from high-powered modules, reducing the risk of performance degradation over time. Innovative EMI shielding and radar bracket materials reduce signal reflections and interference, enhancing accurate object detection. These lightweight, easily integrated solutions help engineers enable the signal clarity essential for safe mobility.
Qnity’s flexible circuit laminates enhance compact, high-density designs throughout ADAS systems. These materials combine exceptional thermal stability with mechanical durability, reducing the effects of vibration and stress while optimizing valuable vehicle space. Environmental sealing technologies enhance protection of sensitive components from moisture, dust, and temperature fluctuations that could otherwise undermine system reliability.
As the industry moves toward 4D imaging radar to improve resolution and data collection, these challenges will only increase. Design engineers can choose from Qnity’s comprehensive portfolio of materials solutions to elevate ADAS performance and accelerate the journey toward fuller autonomous driving.
