Revolutionary coating boosts ADAS safety through stray-light control
Vantablack

ADAS requires unprecedented sensor performance and reliability. As vehicles advance toward full autonomy, optical sensors must consistently identify critical situations under all conditions, remaining unaffected by stray light that can momentarily impair vision and jeopardize safety.

Vantablack 230, which will be on display at the expo, is a breakthrough solution that meets these rigorous demands. This innovative, nanomaterial-free ultra-black coating is both economical and low fogging, specifically engineered to eliminate stray light interference in applications such as camera glare shields and head-up displays. Its robust formulation ensures that performance remains uncompromised, even when exposed to high temperatures and humidity.

Modern vehicles rely heavily on cameras for functions including distance measurement, object recognition, lane departure warnings and traffic sign detection. These systems often face adverse lighting that can introduce veiling glare, artifacts and other image degradation issues – challenges that are amplified by the trend toward wider field-of-view cameras. Superior stray-light management technologies (SLMT) such as Vantablack 230 ensure that optical systems capture images that accurately reflect real-world conditions, thereby meeting stringent automotive safety standards.

Furthermore, advanced bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) measurements confirm that Vantablack 230 minimizes both specular and diffuse light scattering, proving its exceptional performance in real-world scenarios.
