August 15 2018 - 9:30AM
AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer and supplier
of advanced electronic components and interconnect, sensor,
control, and antenna solutions, has been invited to participate in
a technical panel discussion about artificial intelligence and
machine learning for commercial vehicles at the COMVEC™
2018 conference and exposition, which will take place
September 11–13 in Rosemont, Illinois, and will focus on disruptive
technologies in the global commercial vehicle market. Hosted by SAE
International, COMVEC is widely recognized as the leading annual
technical event for the on- and off-highway industry, and is
attended by design engineers, supply managers, executives,
technologists, researchers, academics, consultants, and government
representatives working in the agricultural, construction,
industrial, military, and mining sectors. This year’s event will
feature two vertical symposia tracks, nearly 20 expert panel
discussions, and dynamic technical displays all designed to provide
practical knowledge about the latest tools, challenges, solutions,
and opportunities in the industry, encourage lively discussion
amongst presenters and attendees, facilitate networking, and spark
innovation.
AVX Fellow Ron Demcko and Caterpillar Chief Analytics Director,
Morgan Vawter, will participate in the Total Vehicle Mechatronics
and Integration Committee panel discussion, “Artificial
Intelligence and Machine Learning,” which will take place Tuesday,
September 11, from 10:30am to 12:00pm and will focus on the
important role that artificial intelligence (AI) will play in
shifting the current landscape of the transportation industry. The
panelists will address various vehicular applications of AI and
will answer questions about topics including AI technologies
currently applied in transportation applications, the AI
integration process, current examples of AI in the transportation
industry, a technological roadmap for vehicular AI, and strategies
that suppliers are enacting to develop safe, viable, and robust
vehicular AI systems.
The AVX portion of the panel will focus on the benefits that
innovative, automotive-grade, high-reliability, and high-value
passive components, and especially those imbued with self-healing
capabilities, can provide in the critical path, processing, safety,
and propulsion circuitry of advanced driver assistance systems
(ADAS) and commercial and military vehicle AI systems.
“The eventual introduction of AI will provide massive safety and
efficiency improvements across the commercial vehicle market and,
although ICs will undoubtedly control these AI systems — whether in
series of multiples that vote to confirm actions and control the
system or via internal error-detection and self-correction
mechanisms — all ICs need power I/O and sense lines; so, advanced
passive components will be a critical enabling element of these
cutting-edge systems,” said AVX Fellow, Ron Demcko. “It can be very
difficult to make critical elements like power I/O and sense lines
triple-redundant, but AVX has developed a number of innovative,
automotive-grade components that can provide the high-reliability
passive performance that these systems depend on to deliver the
proven-safe performance commercial vehicles demand.”
For example, several high-reliability, solid electrolytic
tantalum polymer and multilayer organic (MLO) capacitors are
ideally suited for use in critical camera and LIDAR applications
and in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-everything (V2X)
diplexers on critical RF links. Additionally, low-inductance
ceramic capacitors (LICCs) are well suited for use around
the processing core, FLEXISAFE MLCCs for critical
data lines, niobium oxide OxiCap® NOS Series
capacitors for high-priority safety
circuits, Accu-P®Series microwave/RF capacitors for
ultra-narrow band filters, W2H Series high-current
feed-through capacitors for ultra-broadband filters,
and SCM Series supercapacitors for module hold-up
applications.
