BMW Forschung und Technik GmbH, Continental AG, Daimler AG,
Infineon Technologies AG and Robert Bosch GmbH have formed the ‘Radar
on Chip for Cars’ (RoCC) technology cooperation project, involving
joint research that aims to significantly increase driving safety by
making highly reliable radar systems available in all vehicle classes.
The three-year project has a budget of more than Euro 17m,
supported by a financial grant of Euro 8.3m from the German Federal
Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as part of the ITK2020
support program focusing on ‘Innovation Alliance in Automotive
Electronics’. The German government’s high-tech strategy promotes
efforts made to reduce the overall number of traffic accidents, in this
case by helping to introduce innovative safety solutions into the
compact and small-vehicle classes as quickly as possible.
