When Apple introduced its first iPhone in 2007, it was equipped with a capacitive touchscreen , which was a new and exciting display technology. Previous devices were usually equipped with resistive screens, which were error-prone and imprecise. Since Apple first brought the iPhone to market, touchscreens and touch surfaces have experienced rapid technological advancements with ever shorter innovation cycles, leaving the resistive touchscreen mostly a relic of the past. Motherson is seeking to take these advancements one step further and teamed up with Sensel to develop new touch surfaces that are no longer limited to displays alone.

With the rising popularity of smartphones in the past decade, touch screen interfaces have become the preferred way of controlling smart devices. This development has also affected the automotive sector, which had to rethink the interior design of vehicles to create a more comfortable and safer touch interface. In addition, customer satisfaction largely depends on how easily and effectively people are able to interact with their car. Hence, the automotive sector is looking for ways to improve sensing technology and adapt it to the automotive design.

Motherson and Gestoos are going to show a breakthrough on how OEMs can easily and efficiently enable vehicles to understand human movements & behavior in real-time.
Gestoos brings its expertise in machine vision. Gestoos and Motherson worked on the safety-related use case of child presence detection using a vision system. The use case idea is validated for early-stage R&D using Gestoos’ Creator annotation and model generation platform utilizing a limited number of test sequences and without the user needing any in-depth knowledge of computer vision or AI.
