Robust, flexible and secure: your sensors deserve the best protection
The trend towards autonomous driving is making cars ever smarter. This development is not only reserved for the luxury class but is also being implemented across the board in mid-range cars. This is accompanied by the highest demands on the electronics used in terms of accuracy, reliability and resilience, which require the use of innovative high-tech adhesives.
Cameras
DELO adhesives protect sensitive electronics and optics
Cameras are the key to autonomous driving - they provide a clear picture of the surroundings and make even complex maneuvers child's play. They recognize objects such as cars, pedestrians and traffic signs at lightning speed, allowing your vehicle to make safe decisions. In addition to lane keeping, stereo cameras provide impressive depth perception, even in difficult light and weather conditions. These clever devices work hand in hand with LiDAR and RADAR systems to ensure maximum redundancy and safety. For all this to work perfectly, reliable protection of the camera technology and optics is essential. This is where our high-tech adhesives come into play to optimally secure your sensors and increase the performance of your autonomous systems.
The trend towards autonomous driving brings with it immense challenges. The miniaturization of high-performance sensors for automotive cameras in particular presents manufacturers with complex tasks. In the automotive industry, the growing importance of autonomous driver assistance systems is constantly increasing the need for robust and durable solutions for the airtight sealing of image sensors.
For example, we have developed a flexible electronic adhesive that hermetically seals sensor housings and protects the sensitive electronics from extreme environmental conditions. These and other innovations are making a decisive contribution to progress in autonomous driving.
DELO's electronic adhesive is characterized by its flexible properties:
DELO adhesives are used in a variety of camera applications in cars, e.g. for:

LiDAR
Long-term maximum performance of your LiDAR systems with DELO
LiDAR sensors are essential for precise environmental data in autonomous driving. By providing highly precise and detailed environmental data, LiDAR (which stands for "Light Detection and Ranging") complements other sensors such as cameras and RADAR. This information is fundamental for decision-making and control in autonomous vehicles. By combining these technologies, vehicles can respond effectively to dynamic traffic conditions and navigate safely. LiDAR systems with active lane alignment methods, fixed and moving mirrors, large front windows and different materials have high demands on the adhesives. In addition, harsh environmental conditions such as precipitation, sunlight and fluctuating temperatures pose further challenges for adhesive performance.
Specially developed high-tech adhesives from DELO optimally protect the electronics of the sensors and thus ensure their long-term performance.
DELO adhesives are robust and adaptable. In addition to the highest quality, the focus is also on optimal production processes:
LiDAR systems for motor vehicles are essential components in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles. They enable precise distance measurement with a range of up to 300 m and detailed 3D mapping of the vehicle's surroundings. Laser beams are used to measure the distance to objects and thus ensure an accurate perception of the surroundings. As versatile as the LiDAR technology itself is, DELO adhesives are also used in many different ways:
