Among the challenges are those of sensing the environment in and around the vehicle. Infrared camera sensing is seeing a rapid growth and adoption in the industry. The applications and illumination architecture options continue to evolve. This course will provide the foundation on which to build near infrared camera technologies for automotive applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The seminar will begin with a review of infrared basics &#8211; electromagnetic spectrum, spectral irradiance, night vision and eye safety. The content includes an in-depth calculation for infrared camera illumination and eye safety with focus on driver monitoring for interior and machine vision for exterior. Participants will receive insights into rolling and global shutter imagers, wavelength selection, use of secondary optics, continuous vs pulsed IRED operation, thermal design, power consumption, eye safety certification and HMI considerations. Also included is a brief review of iris recognition, cabin monitoring and face recognition and a discussion on trends and challenges facing optical sensing in autonomous vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning Objectives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By participating in this course, you will be able to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Give examples of market forces, regulation and technology in the eco system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comprehend electromagnetic spectrum, spectral irradiance, night vision and eye safety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prescribe infrared camera requirements with a comprehension of key variables<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apply monitoring calculations for illumination, eye safety and power consumption<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Practice exterior IR camera calculations for illumination, eye safety and power consumption<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Define iris recognition, face recognition, cabin monitoring and gesture recognition<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identify challenges and opportunities for sensing trends in ADAS and AV<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sae.org\/learn\/content\/c1934\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Should Attend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mechanical, lead, application, and electrical engineers, along with head of innovation and BOM family owner will benefit from this course.
