indie once again participated in Hannover Messe, the world’s leading industrial trade show, bringing together global leaders, innovators, and decision-makers from across the manufacturing and technology sectors. Every year, it serves as a key platform for showcasing the latest developments in industrial transformation, smart manufacturing, and intelligent automation. Throughout the show, we highlighted our latest advancements in high‑frequency radar sensing with an ultra‑compact MIMO radar designed for operation in the…
Safety is not just a matter of importance for the average consumer. Modern fleets operate with dozens to thousands of vehicles on the road every day, and while safety has become a major concern for vehicle buyers, it also extends to fleet management, requiring sophisticated automated safety technologies to reduce the risk of accidents or injuries while also helping to improve operational efficiency. According to the most recent National Highway Traffic…
The new year has started off with great energy, kicking off at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, an essential opportunity to connect with customers and partners, exchange ideas, and experience the ever-evolving trends in advanced vehicle automation, in-cabin and exterior sensing, and next-generation camera and perception technology within the automotive industry. This year, indie was present both in the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) and in…

According to the European Commission (EC), approximately 20,400 people lost their lives in road accidents across the European Union last year[1]. Enhancing road safety is a critical challenge, and the EC has set an ambitious target to halve the number of road fatalities by 2030. Achieving this goal requires a comprehensive approach involving numerous initiatives and regulations aimed not only at preventing accidents but also at improving the measures taken…
