Added 19 November 2018

Will drive advanced development of vehicle cockpit electronics

The Karlsruhe technology center is part of Visteon's global technical footprint that is driving innovation and many of the latest cockpit electronic technologies worldwide. With global automakers as customers - including BMW, Daimler, Porsche and VW - the facility is responsible for developing digital instrument clusters, information displays, infotainment systems, cockpit domain controllers and autonomous driving solutions.

The center enjoys strong relationships with regional technical institutions and universities as an active partner making both technical and academic contributions. This includes the nationally funded KIP project, where Visteon's technology office and partners from automotive and technology businesses work with the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) to create a database of training data for artificial intelligence in vehicles. Visteon also will use the autonomous driving test area operated by the Karlsruhe Traffic Association to test vehicles with autonomous driving functions in real road conditions.
