CES 2016: Renesas R-Car active safety demo
The most rewarding part of attending CES is the interactive demos, hands down. One of the most intriguing demos this year was courtesy Renesas, where John Buszek, the company’s Segment Marketing Manager for ADAS Solutions took Embedded Computing Design's Brandon Lewis for a ride in a Cadillac SRX retrofitted with eight lidar, five radar, and forward cameras running on two RCar H2 SoCs and Harbrick PolySync autonomous driving software, and a DSRC communications module controlled by Renesas’ W2R and RCar E2 SoCs. Together, these technologies make up the RDrive Autonomous Driving Rapid Prototyping platform.
