3:50 PM UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT OF AUTONOMOUS DRIVING & ADAS FEATURES ON AUTOMOTIVE SEATING & INTERIORS

Fully autonomous L4/L5 vehicles are predicted to completely change the business of seating. What will this mean for the interior and seating segment from a technical point of view and what will be the dollar impact of this evolution is an unknown.


Understand exactly what autonomous driving will mean for car seats and the way they will be designed. We’re giving you the opportunity to delve deeper into this future-focused topic, and understand:


  •  What will need to be integrated into vehicle seats to enable occupants to sleep in their cars, watch movies in their cars or have meetings in their vehicles, without necessarily facing forwards?
  • What does out-of-position seating in an autonomous vehicle mean for crash performance?
  • How restraints be impacted by and integrated into autonomous vehicles?
