Gentex and ADASKY to unveil thermal imaging for rear vision
in a digital rearview mirror
LAS
VEGAS, Jan. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ADASKY,
a leading developer of thermal imaging technology, is set to
exhibit its innovative sensing solutions at the Consumer
Electronics Show (CES) 2024. The company's next-gen automotive
thermal camera will be exclusively featured at the Gentex
Corporation booth, which follows last year's announcement of a
collaboration agreement with Gentex to help commercialize ADASKY's
technology.
ADASKY's proprietary LWIR (Long Wave Infrared) sensors are
becoming well-known in the industry for their market-leading
performance based on their superior size-to-performance ratio,
solid state technology, high reliability, and "shutterless"
constant-operation design. As advanced sensing systems create the
path for passenger and pedestrian safety, thermal sensing will fill
the existing gaps in that technology so that ADAS and vision-based
systems can operate more reliably in low light and in all-weather
situations.
"Showcasing our technology at CES marks a significant
milestone for ADASKY," said ADASKY CEO Yakov Shaharabani. "Our collaboration with
Gentex is more than a partnership; it's an industry-leading fusion
of expertise and innovation. Together, we're developing the future
of automotive safety, enhancing driver perception, and ensuring
reliability under any driving condition."
In May of 2023, ADASKY and Gentex established a commercial,
engineering, and manufacturing collaboration agreement designed to
help bring ADASKY's proprietary technology to market. The
partnership is focused on helping ADASKY scale from early growth
company to a global leader in thermal sensing.
"Gentex has a 50-year history in sensing technology," said
Gentex President and CEO Steve
Downing. "Our partnership with ADASKY adds thermal
capabilities to our sensing toolbox. Our goal is to not only help
ADASKY commercialize its technology for existing automotive
applications, but also find opportunities to integrate thermal into
current and future Gentex products in all the markets we
serve."
One such product integration opportunity is with Gentex's
industry-leading Full Display Mirror® (FDM®), an intelligent
rear-vision system that uses a custom camera and mirror-integrated
video display to optimize a vehicle's rearward view. At CES, Gentex
will debut ADASKY's thermal sensing technology in an FDM, the first
application of thermal technology in a digital rearview mirror. The
inclusion of a rearward-facing thermal camera in an FDM system
could dramatically improve the driver's ability to monitor the
rearward scene during nighttime driving and identify potential
hazards while reversing.
Forward- and rearward-facing applications of ADASKY's thermal
technology will be on exhibit in an interactive kiosk and
demonstrator vehicle at the Gentex booth. Customer test drives will
also be available.
CES is an annual exhibition organized by the Consumer Technology
Association. The event showcases the latest advancements and
upcoming products in the field of consumer electronics. CES 2024
runs January 9-12 in Las
Vegas. ADASKY technologies will be on display at the Gentex
booth in the Las Vegas Convention
Center, West Hall, booth #6440.
Founded in 1974, Gentex Corporation (NASDAQ: GNTX) is a
supplier of automatic-dimming rearview mirrors and electronics to
the automotive industry, dimmable aircraft windows for aviation
markets, and fire protection products to the fire protection
market. Check out some of the Company's latest technology at

ADASKY develops and manufactures intelligent, high-resolution
thermal sensing systems (LWIR) for vehicle safety and perception
applications and smart city roadway solutions. Thermal vision
systems can see at night the same as during daylight and are not
limited by blinding lights or harsh weather conditions, filling
gaps in existing sensor suites. Learn more at
