AURORA, Ontario, Dec. 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Magna
International Inc. announced that its "Moving People" exhibit at
the CES 2016 world stage in Las
Vegas will showcase innovations which seek to address key
industry challenges related to connected vehicle security and
driver safety.
These technologies include a system that combines Magna's secure
gateway with Argus Cyber Security's software solution to bring a
proactive approach to enhanced vehicle cyber security. Unlike
typical solutions which merely provide a firewall, the combined
Magna/Argus system monitors for suspicious and/or potential
malicious activity for early detection and prevention.
Magna will also showcase in-cabin imaging and head-up display
technologies aimed at reducing distracted driving and improving
driver safety. Magna's solution uses a camera-based monitoring
system which detects the driver's eye gaze and measures levels of
drowsiness and distraction. The head-up display projects an
unobstructed image from the rear camera, using eye gaze
determination to identify when a driver looks up at the interior
mirror to get a rearward view.
"Magna continues to develop technologies which aim to create a
smarter and safer driving experience for end consumers," said
Swamy Kotagiri, Magna's Chief
Technology Officer. "The systems we will be showing at CES
represent leading-edge, cost-effective solutions which are
necessary for today's vehicles and critical for the development of
autonomous vehicles."
Magna's CES booth will be located in the Las Vegas Convention Center's North Hall,
booth #4327. A driver-assistance system simulator and interactive
vehicle secured connectivity demonstration will be available to
booth visitors during show hours from January 6-9.
