With U.S. pedestrian fatalities doubling since 2010 and new safety mandates on the horizon, the automotive industry faces mounting pressure to improve road safety through Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has set 2029 as the deadline for all new passenger vehicles and light trucks to include Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) that can prevent collisions, even at speeds up to 62 mph—a threshold today’s systems struggle to meet.

In this exclusive panel, industry experts will discuss the advances in radar technology needed to close critical safety gaps. Attendees will learn how next-generation systems, provide clearer visibility and higher accuracy in complex conditions with new mathematical algorithms, setting a new foundation for ADAS performance and regulatory compliance.

 This panel offers a unique look at the future of radar technology in meeting upcoming safety standards, making driving safer and more predictable for all road users.
