Nexteer & Tactile Mobility Honored with CES 2023 Innovation Award for Road Surface Detection & Early Intuitive Warning Software
AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Nov. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire-Asianet/ --

Nexteer Automotive(https://www.nexteer.com/) has been recognized as a CES® 2023 
Innovation Awards Honoree(https://www.ces.tech/Innovation-Awards/Honorees.aspx) 
in the "Vehicle Tech & Advanced Mobility" product category for its Road Surface 
Detection & Early Intuitive Warning Software with Tactile Mobility.

This software solution advances lifesaving steering safety by enhancing a 
vehicle's "awareness" of its environment and early warning communication to the 
driver through steering feel.

"Nexteer is honored to be recognized as a CES 2023 Innovation Award Honoree in 
the Vehicle Tech & Advanced Mobility category," said Robin Milavec, President, 
Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) and Executive 
Board Director, Nexteer Automotive. "Our innovative Road Surface Detection & 
Early Intuitive Warning Software solution with Tactile Mobility shows how 
industry collaboration can lead to game-changing solutions that improve safety 
and performance for future mobility."

About Road Surface Detection & Early Intuitive Warning Software

Nexteer and Tactile Mobility's Road Surface Detection & Early Intuitive Warning 
Software(https://www.nexteer.com/software-2/road-surface-detection/) leverages 
traditional steering feel into a new arena, enabling the vehicle itself to 
"feel" the road by converting road surface information into data that the 
vehicle collects, interprets and assigns to road condition scenarios – all in 
real time.

The software fuses two algorithms: A steering-based analytical algorithm and a 
data-driven, machine learned algorithm. The resulting "virtual sensor" data is 
transmitted to a cloud service that communicates upcoming danger to trailing 
vehicles. When the vehicle is notified of an upcoming slippery surface, 
software will mimic the steering feel of a slippery surface before reaching the 
actual slippery road. Giving a heads-up through steering feel influences the 
driver to intuitively reduce vehicle speed and drive safer.
