What is ADAS and how does the automotive industry benefit from it?

ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) are intelligent systems for driver support. Our focus is on developing camera-based solutions that classify objects and hazards in real time using Vision-AI (AI-supported image processing).

Our key areas include high-precision Surroundview-Systeme for 360° environment recognition and Camera Mirror Systeme (CMS), which replace conventional mirrors with digital vision solutions.

The benefits for the industry:

AI-powered precision: Through Vision-AI, vehicles achieve a new level of object recognition and decision-making reliability
Digital Innovation: CMS reduces drag (efficiency) and improves visibility at night or in rain
Safety & Compliance: Camera-based AI is the key to meeting the strict EU safety regulations for new vehicle registrations
Future-proof: These technologies form the indispensable foundation for semi- and fully autonomous driving

What added value does d.stream offer in the development of Camera Mirror Systems (CMS)?

We bring experience from four successfully realized series production launches (SOP) for supercars, premium EVs, and trucks to your project. d.stream covers the entire technical depth:

Hardware-related development: Expert knowledge for TI TDAx-SoCs, bootloaders, and drivers.
Full-Stack Video-Pipeline: Responsibility from the sensor via GMSL/FPD-Link, via ISP to the display.
