Solving Motion Control Needs for Today’s World & An Automated Future
The Future of Motion Control is Here: At Nexteer, We are enhancing the future of mobility through intuitive motion control solutions that enable a new era of safety & performance.
Electric Power Steering is a Key ADAS Enabler
Simply put, our EPS system receives commands from the vehicle’s central computer and sensors. Then, the system translates this data into mechanical, steering functions.
Did you know that Nexteer’s EPS has been enabling ADAS features since 2007 – long before ADAS was a hot topic in the industry? Checkout the video to learn more.
In-House, ADAS & Automated Driving Building Blocks
EPS is a key ADAS enabler and one of many gateways to semi- and fully automated driving. Nexteer’s EPS systems share many of the same building blocks as ADAS as well as varying levels of automated driving.
Our vehicle-level integration expertise (software, mechanical and electrical) is the most important, foundational building block. Additional core building blocks include:
- Power electronics
- Motor design
- Sensor design
- Software algorithms
- Closed loop servo control
- Systems engineering
- Safety critical product development
Many Nexteer EPS-enabled ADAS features are already on the road today and enhance drivers’ comfort, control and safety. These ADAS features include:
- Park Assist
- Lane Keeping
- Lane Departure Warnings
- Wheel Imbalance Rejection
- Trailer Assist
- Traffic Jam Assist
- And many more…
Market Leading Cyber Security
As a supplier-partner for an OEM with the strictest cybersecurity requirements, Nexteer’s Electrical Architecture has become a market leader thanks to our software, hardware and systems integration know-how.
