Project Focused in R+D+I, within the Sustainable Automotion Technology Program 2021-2023 (Programa Tecnológico de Automoción Sostenible, PTAS), supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation and funded by CDTI (Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnológico Industrial).

Description

INPERCEPT (Intelligent Perception for connected and autonomous vehicles) main objective is to advance in development of key enabling technologies providing enhanced capabilities to allow autonomous vehicles to operate more energy-efficiently and safely, and to be able to detect obstacles in adverse conditions.

In the context of InPercept, Capgemini Engineering develops a new radar system in order to improve autonomous perception by data fusion from several sensors (radar, cameras, GNSS), with the aim of detecting pedestrians and vulnerable vehicles, and to skip potentially dangerous situations with increased precision depending on environmental conditions. UPC contributes data fusion technologies for radar and video detection for Capgemini.
