Automotive Engineering
Using Optical Technologies

Photons, the quanta of light, are a key to vehicle functionalities that pure electronics can only accomplish to a limited extent or not at all. Optical technologies therefore no longer just limit their scope to cameras and lighting. Today, light also carries sensor information and data. Correlations can be drawn to the evolution of semiconductor technologies.
