Introduction

As EV’s/PHEV’s are developed to face the challenges for ever greater energy efficiency, safety and sustainability, sensor systems that provide the enabling data are key. Cost effective, accurate and reliable monitoring of these vehicle systems, requires new materials and capabilities to both realise the ubiquitous level of sensor deployment and to protect these sensitive systems from challenging electrical, mechanical and environmental effects. AMD is working with partners to address these major challenges and bring positive impact to the automotive world.
