Frbiz.com Reports Automotive Electronics 2010 Will Be Washed To Open The Door To Be Closed

January 23rd, 2011

Automotive electronics in automotive technology development of a revolution, is an important symbol of modern automotive standards, is used to develop new models and improve vehicle performance, the most important technical measures. The application of modern automotive electronic technology not only improve the vehicle dynamics and safety, improve vehicle stability and driving comfort, to promote the development of the automobile industry, but also for electronic products has opened up new markets and applications. At present, the application of electronic technology has penetrated almost all systems to the car.

According to statistics, in recent years, the average per vehicle electronic devices in the car as a whole the proportion of manufacturing costs rising, has risen to more than 23%. In a number of luxury cars, electronic equipment, at cost even more than 50% of vehicle cost. The global financial crisis triggered a recession in major markets, and eventually led to the collapse of auto production and sales. StrategyAnalytics company forecast for the global automotive electronics market, compared to 2008 decreased 3%, in 2009 and further expanded to 15%, the market value of about 126 billion U.S. dollars. 2010 cars will not be e-retreat will certainly move on.

In 1997 became a key turning point in automotive electronic

Automotive electronic era began in the last century, 70. Initially the electronic ignition device, and then, with the increase in micro-controller application, there is an automatic door locks, vehicle navigation, anti-lock braking systems, collision warning, anti-theft system, tire pressure monitoring, fault diagnosis. Automotive Electronic around “security” and “comfortable” and “green” direction, but progress is not fast. Turning point in the late 90s of last century to meet the new century, a landmark event shall be the car of the future – hybrids debut, the first mass production of Toyota hybrid vehicles PRIUS.

Compared with conventional gasoline vehicles, in the configuration of the “electronic control module” in the hybrids, batteries, motors and semiconductors and other electronic products are many more. To PRIUS, for example, its electrical equipment accounted for 50% of vehicle cost. Electronics manufacturers new vehicle coming out big market, through the procurement of auto parts makers to learn from the automobile manufacturers with the manufacturing knowledge and expertise. Thus, there appeared on the market specifically for automotive applications, products, these products quality, price and delivery is relatively strict, but also to promote the automotive and electronics business in close cooperation with Canton.

    Motor Company Century merger

PRIUS launched six months later, in May 1998, the industry broke out of a big news shocked the world. Germany’s Daimler – Benz and U.S. Chrysler Motors Corporation merged the two Daimler – Chrysler, which really is a “century combined.” Then, Japan’s Nissan Motor Co. and France’s Renault car companies also work together to emerge a global wave of consolidation in the automotive industry. Motor Company’s restructuring to accelerate the car electronics. Many automobile manufacturers started to focus on hybrid, fuel cell vehicles and other environmentally-friendly vehicle development. The application of electronic technology into a key to success.

Environmental technology development costs rising, car share through a number of reduced spending. For example, in fuel cell development, including the U.S. General Motors, Germany, Opel, Toyota Motor Company 3 together, another Daimler – Chrysler, Ford, Mazda and other auto companies and the world’s largest fuel cell Company of Canada BallardPowerSystems company alliances.

Envisioning the Open Road: Automotive Designers Creating the Cars of Today & Tomorrow

By Damian McKnight
Designschools.com Contributing Writer

It can be argued that no design career is sexier than that of the Automotive Designer. Today’s designers embody the styles and culture of today while contouring the style of tomorrow. They utilize product design principles and emerging technology to create commercial, yet innovative, designs for new automobiles, motorcycles, trucks, buses, coaches, and vans. Often working in tandom with a large team of engineers, designers work to ensure that their concepts are appealing to consumers, can actually lead to functioning automobiles, and are environmentally friendly and affordable. Not to mention…..sexy.

History

In the United States, automotive design reached a critical juncture in 1924 when the American national automobile market began reaching saturation. To maintain sales, General Motors pioneer Alfred P. Sloan Jr. suggested annual model-year design changes in the hope that car owners would want to buy a new replacement each year. His strategy succeeded and was later adapted by rest of the industry.

The most celebrated American auto designer is probably Harley Earl,who brought the tailfin and other aeronautical design references to auto design in the 1950s. Earl is joined among legendary auto designers by Gordon Buehrig, responsible for the Auburn 851 and iconic Cord 810 and 812. Another notable designer who had a markedly different style was Chrysler group’s designer Virgil Exner, an early pioneer of Cab forward (a.k.a.Forward look) design in mid-1950s. Exner is also credited with introducing the pointed tail fins in the 1956 Plymouth Belvedere later adapted by all other Detroit studios.
