Tele Atlas has unveiled its Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
It includes gradient, road curvature and ADAS-quality geometry that can be used to create a variety of ADAS-level applications, including eco-routing, adaptive cruise control, energy management, headlight steering, road preview and curve warning.
They can issue speed warnings if a vehicle is going too fast for an upcoming curve, improve the performance of cruise control and automatic cruise control to take into account upcoming curves and off-ramps, or improve fuel economy by using information about hills and real world speeds to manage energy usage.
“The most powerful ADAS solutions will dynamically combine map, behavioural and environmental data,” said Jonathon Husby, Tele Atlas vice president of Automotive, Transportation and Telematics.
“Tele Atlas ADAS marks a major step forward for safety and eco routing applications because our products will replace inference with experience.”
