SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Silicon Valley-based automotive radar startup, Altos Radar, has raised $3.5 million in seed round funding that will fast-track the commercialization of 4D imaging radars in driver-assisted and autonomous vehicles.
This enabled the possibility of producing high-resolution radars at one-third the size of the previously used 24GHz radars with similar angular resolution.
This makes Altos V1 radar the world's first production-ready non-FPGA-based, 4-chip cascaded (12TX, 16RX) 4D imaging radar, offering great advantages in cost, reliability and mass-producibility.
Altos Radar's new high-performance 4D millimeter-wave RADAR caters to the demands of a 4D imaging radar market that Yole's 2022 Automotive Radar Report estimated will double YoY by 2027 to $8 billion.

BERLIN, Dec. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenSynergy announces its latest cooperation with Renesas to run its VIRTIO-based virtualization platform on the new, powerful Renesas R-Car S4 system-on-chip (SoC). The integration of OpenSynergy's automotive platforms onto the Renesas R-Car S4 allows customers to accelerate the convergence of a wide range of functions within the vehicle and invent new use cases for high-end central car computers.

Key Points:

The integration of OpenSynergy's automotive platforms onto the Renesas R-Car S4 allows customers to accelerate the convergence of a wide range of functions within the vehicle and invent new use cases for high-end central car computers.
The automotive industry is moving away from an E/E architecture consisting of many ECUs to an architecture with a central, High-Performance Computer (HPC) that is connected to local zonal computers.
While the zonal computers are used to consolidate the traditional real-time microcontroller-based ECUs, the HPCs are used to consolidate several domain controllers.
OpenSynergy further provides complimentary Automotive-Grade software components tailored for the AndroidTM Open Source Project (AOSP) to boost Android's adoption in the automotive domain.
