Lecture outline
In this colloquium, two of the main drivers of the transition in automotive industry will be discussed: At first, the legislative boundary conditions pushing the conversion of propulsion technologies towards electrification will be introduced and technological aspects of electric power train systems will be discussed. This includes battery systems, electric motors as well as architectures of electric cars. In the second part, technological background of advanced driver assistance systems will be introduced as well as the status of technology on the way to autonomous driving. In addition, several challenges of implementing self-driving cars in general traffic will be discussed by use of selected examples in Europe and the United States.
