I recently picked up a couple of microwave motion sensor radar modules. You have seen (and perhaps tried) it before. This post is about the HFS-DC06 (DC5V/5.8GHz) Microwave Radar Sensor Switch Module!

The controller area network (CAN) bus is a reliable, real-time communication protocol and remains the backbone of modern ...

Modern communications and sensing technologies have revolutionized the way cars are designed. To increase safety and move toward autonomous driving (AD), new vehicles must include systems that can ...

Radar systems are evolving rapidly, using improved technology to bring new benefits. A changeover to more digital components is enabling techniques such as beam forming, which improves surveillance ...

With the shift towards electric vehicles, end-users are becoming less concerned about traditional differentiators like engine horsepower and are placing greater emphasis on smart interior functions.

Self-driving technology is likened to training the autonomous vehicle (AV) to drive like humans – or hopefully better than humans. Just as humans rely on their senses and cognitive responses for ...

In the days before integrated circuits became ubiquitous, providing advanced functionality in a single package, designers became adept at extracting the maximum use from discrete components. They’d ...

Software-defined vehicles (SDVs) have had car company marketers in a veritable tizzy for several years, and while they generally agree on the direction, they differ on the speed and route to adoption.

In February 2025, Tesla activated its in-cabin radar in the Model Y via software update 2025.2.6, utilizing a 60-64 GHz millimeter-wave radar powered by Texas Instruments' AWR6843 chip. Positioned ...
