Gurugram: NOVELIC, a subsidiary of Sona Comstar and a leading provider of mmWave radar and perception solutions for the automotive industry, has been awarded the \u201cIn-Cabin Innovation of the Year\u201d at the prestigious ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle International Awards 2025, which was held in Stuttgart, Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The award recognizes NOVELIC\u2019s Automotive In-Cabin Monitoring (ACAM) solution, a 60GHz millimeter-wave radar-based sensor system that enables intelligent, contactless monitoring of vehicle interiors. Developed entirely in-house, ACAM ensures full interior coverage and supports critical safety applications such as child presence detection (CPD), a feature that is poised to become a mandatory requirement under Euro NCAP\u2019s updated safety protocols from 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle International awards (#AAVIs) are organized by ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle International, known for their eponymous industry publication, and seek to \u201crecognize groundbreaking achievements that are driving safer, smarter, and more sustainable mobility solutions\u201d, at a \u201ccritical juncture for the automotive industry\u201d. The In-Cabin Innovation of the Year nominees included SmartEye\u2019s Sheila, AVS\u2019s Scaner Human Factors, and NOVELIC\u2019s ACAM. The winner was decided by AAVI\u2019s panel of judges and the magazine\u2019s readership. Dr. Raffaele Soloperto, NOVELIC\u2019s Vice President of Automotive Radar, accepted the award in the name of the NOVELIC team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a culmination of years of effort in research and development we\u2019ve done in this field \u2013 and the prize today is not for me, but for all my colleagues who have contributed to what we\u2019re doing. We\u2019re fully committed to short-range radar, and radar as a solution for in-cabin monitoring, which will finally save children\u2019s lives. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!\u201d \u2013 said Dr. Soloperto in his acceptance speech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACAM, NOVELIC\u2019s 60 GHz radar in-cabin monitoring module, is a compact solution for EuroNCAP-compliant child presence detection, offering industry-leading performance with a power-efficient design. One module covers the entire cabin of a five-seater vehicle, enabling accurate seat occupancy detection, cabin intrusion, and proximity alerts. This solution is set to enter mass production in 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
