It’s a similar, pared-back two-seater, only this time the X-Bow R brings an uprated version of the Audi 2.0-litre four-cylinder. It’s the turbocharged TFSI engine, boosted to 296bhp and 295lb ft of torque. That’s more than in the donor Audi S3 and TT-S, which produce no more than 268bhp.

Prod the throttle and the R simply flies towards the horizon. Ther...

ADAS-Advanced driver assistance systems works

As advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) continue to evolve, the integration of different sensors has become increasingly important. Among these sensors, lidar stands out as a key technology for enhancing the accuracy and reliability of ADAS functions. In this blog post, we will explore the benefits of fusing lidar in ADAS functions and its applications. What is Lidar and How Does it Work? Lidar is a remote sensing technology that uses laser light to measure distances and create high-resolution 3D images of the environment. In ADAS applications, LiDAR sensors are installed on vehicles to sense their surroundings and collect information about the location, speed, and shape of objects in the environment. Benefits of Fusing Lidar in ADAS Functions Improved Object Detection and Recognition Lidar sensors provide accurate and detailed information about the vehicle's surroundings, making objects more reliable and familiar. Unlike cameras or radars, LIDAR can detect objects even i...
