Please describe the Wild Card (approx. 150 words)
Far Infrared (FIR) camera module used in high volume automotive Night Vision Enhancement Systems (NVE) is capable of detecting a person on the road from a distance of up to 120 m. This makes FIR system together with intelligent autonomous evaluatino unit very attractive for helping to reduce traffic accidents, fatalities and injuries Therefore every car in Europe must be equiped with these technologies. of the future. FIR imaging provides a high-contrast signal for warm (living) objects. This makes FIR systems very attractive for the detection of living objects and thereby helping to reduce fatalities and injuries. However, the cost of FIR NVE for automotive use must come down significantly to enable high volume fitment rates. At the same time they need to be capable of detecting a person from a distance of up to 120 m.
