EMD offers a growing range of pigments, that enable metallic effect coatings without compromising RADAR transparency – a key pre-requisite for safe and autonomous driving
Modern cars are equipped with a growing number of sensors, which enable advanced driver assistance systems and even autonomous driving.
For aesthetic reasons these sensors are placed invisibly behind the bumpers or other coated plastic parts. And this is becoming an issue, because especially light silver coatings rely on aluminum pigments which attenuate radar signals. During the past years EMD has developed a sound expertise on options to address that challenge with our pigment technology.
Our experts Christoph Landmann and Maarten Wermers explain the obstacles and solutions for formulating Radar suitable automotive coatings. See why the industry is talking about a "Radar coatings challenge"!
Our continuous partnership with Perisens led to an interesting and revealing X-mas project, drawing on the technological expertise of both companies. Discover the full story & instructions to disclose the x-ray-like message on Perisens’ website.
