Intelligent systems for tire monitoring and control deserve special attentionsince insufficient tire pressure accounts for more than 3% of the efficiency losses in the car. Future electrical in-wheel motors require new miniaturised functionalities enabled by advanced micro- and smart systems. The conference book in hand is a showroom of activities, the AMAA has been known for during the last 12 years: advanced sensors even including one based on the giant magneto resistance (GMR) effect – a finding for which two European physicists were awarded the Nobel prize, recently – several camera and radar systems making road traffic safer by assisting the driver in recognizing pedestrians and obstacles, and human-machine interfaces based on the recognition of hand gestures - astriking example of how smart systems will further enhance the usability of vehicles and the comfort of driving. Additional information is available on www.amaa.de Microsystems contribute to any new automobile model's success and reliability Microsystems and their underlying technologies are in many cases eventhe driving forces in order to satisfy new customers' requirement The state of art of microsystems in automotive applications is represented in this book INDICE: Topics of AMAA 2008 are: - Safety all aspects of preventive and protective safety (e.g. accident avoidance, pre- and after-crash actions, vehicle stability control); - Powertrain on-line measurement and control of engine and transmission subsystems (e.g. emission control, traction control); - Comfort and HMI systems to enhance the comfort of passengers and human machine interface issues (e.g. seat, climate control, driver assistance); Networked Vehicleall aspects of intra-car systems and ambient communication; - Technology related topics; - Sensors (e.g. pressure, harsh environment), power aspects (e.g. low power sensors, energy harvesting), managing complexity.
