Automotive engineers around the world are immersed in harnessing the latest technologies to bring smart, autonomous vehicles to our roads. Those technologies will also enhance the driver and passenger experience far beyond today’s norm, through intuitive human-machine interfaces and highly personalized cockpits.
Essential to the development of fully autonomous vehicles are Hall effect switches which have proved to be ideal for a range of position and proximity sensing applications. These include detecting the position of seats and seatbelt buckles, implementing vehicle immobilization systems or steering locks, gear stick position detection, transmission actuator and gear status.
For automotive engineers tasked with creating fully autonomous vehicles, it’s important to work with someone who understands Hall effect technology and has a growing portfolio of switches designed specifically for the most demanding automotive applications. Read this article from Diodes to learn more about the Hall effect.
