DENSO, a leading mobility supplier, is officially set to exhibit an assortment of innovation at ITS World Congress 2025.
In case you weren’t aware, the stated event happens to be one of the world’s largest gatherings as far as intelligent transportation community is concerned, an event which brings together public and private sector leaders to address mobility’s most pressing challenges.
Talk about innovations DENSO will showcase in this year’s edition, we begin from MobiQTM V2X Roadside and On-Board Units. These units effectively support signal priority applications, traveler information messages, and other vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure applications.
In fact, the given combination of roadside and on-board unit support should be able to improve road safety, enhance fuel efficiency and promote better traffic flow.
Next up, we have MobiQTM keyless access, which is effectively designed to simplify fleet management and vehicle access, while simultaneously allowing approved individuals to enter vehicles by badge, smart phone, and other methods. This particular functionality can come in handy to remove cumbersome and easily lost keys from fleet workflows, as well as ensure that the right people are in the right vehicles at the right time.
Keyless access also unlocks existing DENSO innovations for your fleets, with its next-gen passive vehicle operation helping fleet users perform more efficiently.
Another detail worth a mention is rooted in the company’s Dynamic Wireless Power Transfer System. The stated system can basically charge battery electric vehicles (BEVs) when parked, when near traffic control devices like stop signs or traffic lights, and when in motion.
Such a mechanism, like you can guess, should really go the distance to extend their range and alleviate battery capacity concerns.
Beyond that, we have a LiDsEYETM solution coming into play. DENSO’s high-resolution lidar system arrives on the scene bearing an ability to facilitate infrastructure applications like traffic monitoring and vulnerable road user (VRU) detection.
Joining the mix after that would be the Local Area Monitoring Perimeter (LAMP). This one is essentially an edge-based computing system, capable of delivering real-time, street-level awareness by fusing multiple sensor types, such as lidar, microlocation and advanced imaging.
More on that would reveal how the stated solution can also empower emergency responders to better understand the scene of accidents before they arrive, strengthening their preparedness and accelerating response times.
Hold on, we are not done yet, considering we haven’t touched upon the prospect of federated learning. Here, DENSO will leverage privacy-preserving federated learning to train trajectory-prediction models on data from multiple intersections, and all raw data local.
We also haven’t touched upon the access to next-gen AI model development environments, environments that will be deployed to develop and verify the automated driving and advanced driver assistance systems of the future.
Rounding up highlights would be the potential for vehicle cabin monitoring. You see, powered by UWB and paired with keyless access, the stated facility happens to be an ideal tool for detecting if children are alone in a vehicle and allowing approved users to open the doors.
Founded in 1947, DENSO’s rise up the ranks stems from developing advanced technology and components for nearly every vehicle make and model on the road today. The stature of its operations can also be contextualized once you consider it invests in more than 180 facilities worldwide to produce cutting-edge electrification, powertrain, thermal, and mobility electronics products.
“Harnessing our 75 years of automotive expertise, we continue to push the envelope with technology in vehicles and also in the intelligent transportation systems where they operate,” said Peyton Winstead, director of Digital Solutions at DENSO in North America. “This holistic approach means we are uniquely positioned to help fleets and communities achieve safer, smarter and more streamlined transportation outcomes. We look forward to connecting with leaders in the public and private sectors who share our passion for these areas, which helps us advance our mission of contributing to a better world.”
