At the largest trade show for commercial vehicles, alternative powertrains, and municipal technology in North Rhine-Westphalia, we are showcasing our solutions for fleet electrification.
We will be demonstrating a fully automated charging system that recharges electric commercial vehicles without the need for manual plugging. The Underbody Charging System requires no additional space for charging infrastructure at the charging point and does not use exposed cables. As a result, it offers no targets for cable theft or vandalism.
The technology enables charging capacities in the megawatt range and is ideal for efficient use in logistics centers and depots.

How can vehicle and infrastructure sensors work together to generate a reliable situational picture and thus make automated driving safer? We spent three years conducting intensive research into this question as part of the VALISENS project. Our goal: to prevent accidents involving vulnerable road users and strengthen confidence in autonomous systems.
Together with VALISENS partners XITASO, LiangDao, NXP Semiconductors, and smartmicro, the results were presented to the professional public and partners at the project's closing event.
