Autonomy & AI

As the name would imply, position assurance is a mechanism to ensure that “something” stays in the correct position. In some cases, this feature is referred to as a secondary latch or secondary lock.

Let’s start with the basics - what are compute modules? Compute modules are devices within a vehicle that process inputs and store data.

Amphenol RF introduces a line of pre-configured FAKRA cable assemblies supporting frequencies through 3 GHz and ideal for a wide range of automotive development applications.

In today's fast-paced world, autonomous technology is reshaping industries, making operations more efficient, safe, and data-driven.

Traditionally automotive applications and industrial technologies have operated fairly siloed from one another. As self-driving and autonomous technology becomes more prevalent in vehicles and warehouse infrastructure employs more robotics for day-to-day tasks, the historical distinction between the two industries is beginning to overlap in a critical way.
