Event Highlights

ADAS & AD Systems Portfolio

Prerequisite for highly developed driver assistance functions and automated driving are a reliable perception of the vehicle environment, a full understanding of this environment and a driving strategy, including appropriate reactions, derived from this understanding.

As a system provider, Continental supplies all the necessary components and all the intermediate steps for the realization of automated driving – from one source.

Series-Ready Cruising System

We are a full system provider for all components of future ADAS systems - including radar sensors, cameras and ECUs. Application-ready functions include Cruising, ACC, Lane Guidance Assist and Assisted Lane Change. Safety functions such as EBA and Minimum Risk Maneuver are integrated on the same platform.

Remote Automated Parking

We are a full system supplier for Automated Parking Systems including sensors and functions that include Surround View Cameras and Next generation Ultrasonic Sensors.

Adding sophisticated human vision will in future provide excellent and tailored views, supporting the driver and boosting the confidence in the system.

Next Generation Driving Planner

The model predictive driving planner is a big step from conventional vehicle control technology towards intelligent software. It considers a complex environment as well as vehicle dynamic constraints and calculates a safe and comfortable path for the car to follow. It enables challenging use cases of automated driving such as the presented dynamic evasion maneuver.

360° Protection for VRU

Continental’s answer to prevent increasing fatalities due to changing Urban Mobility with vulnerable road users (VRU) such as bicycles, scooters and Segways).

360° protection of VRUs powered by 4 corner Short Range Radar [plus Front Camera and Long-Range Radar].

The consequent next step to Continental’s Vision Zero.

Transparent Hood

Transparent Hood technology displays the area underneath the vehicle to the driver, giving the ability to see obstacles and terrain that would otherwise be obstructed from the driver’s view.

Maneuvering in narrow passages becomes a lot easier for the driver as it is clearly visible where the vehicle ends in relation to the environment.

LiDAR – Requirement for Safe Automated Driving

Continental‘s LiDAR portofilo enables safety critical, Automated Driving applications for highly complex use-cases and environments.

Rapid development and delivery of automotive-grade LiDAR sensors with Continental‘s Partnering Strategy (with Aeye for Long-range) passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, and Off-highway markets.

Brake Components for Future System Architecture

Electrification of the vehicles changes significantly the brake system use cases.

Health & Safety

For Continental, the health and safety of all customers, partners, guests and employees has top priority. Because of that, prior to entering we will require all guests as well as all Continental staff at the event to agree to take a test for COVID-19 upon arrival (obviously with negative result. A test facility with trained medical staff will be available at the event check-in)


Furthermore

  • Masks are to be worn at all times with expetions only during lunch and outdoors if a distance of at least 1.5m is maintained.
  • Sanitising stations will be prominently installed throughout the entire event.
  • Vehicle doors, cockpit, steering wheel, gearshift, door handles and other high contact surfaces will be regularly cleaned and disinfected during your time at the event. The same applies to the exhibition area as well as all sanitary facilities.
  • Medical services are available onsite 24/7.
  • The event safety concept will comply with all legal requirements.


The safety concept of the event will be readjusted depending on future evolvement of COVID19 infection rates and legal requirements in the event location. You will receive an update of the precautionary measures approx. 2 weeks ahead of the event.


If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with your local contact.

Welcome to Continental Frankfurt!

Continental is one of the oldest and largest manufacturing companies in Frankfurt. The company’s history goes back to 1904. Today the Frankfurt location is the headquarters of the Autonomous Mobility and Safety business area. Approximately 5.200 employees (incl. satellite locations) are employed in the areas of development, administration and production. The highly-automated plant is one of the most modern of its kind and produces nearly eight million electronic brake systems for the world market every year. Furthermore, future-oriented technologies like automated driving, are developed at the Frankfurt location.


Continental Frankfurt is located approx. 20min by Taxi from Frankfurt Airport (FRA). From the main train station (Hauptbahnhof) we also recommend a Taxi (approx. 10min) instead of subway/S-Bahn due to COVID-19.

For those of you travelling by car visitor parking will be available on site.
