For a tidal push to development of advanced driver assistance systems, and relevant technologies, Continental India announced its partnership with IIT Delhi, IIT Madras, International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore (IIT-B), and the Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology (III-D) to facilitate research and development of ADAS. Explaining its working together with these institutions, the German company will be developing important skills required for the similar systems and functionalities, thereby boosting the adoption of autonomous technologies.

"India is recognised as a global base for top engineering talent. We actively engage in high-synergy collaborations with leading research institutions in India. Our research programs aim to push the boundaries of what advanced driver-assistant technologies make possible today. We are committed to the belief that more intelligent vehicles lead to safer roads," said Praveen Kumar, head of Engineering, Sensorics - ADAS, Continental's Technical Center India (TCI).

The German company stated that now it is involved in research on scenario perception for improving safety for bicycles, pedestrians and animals. While sensor inputs are used by conventional ADAS, for LiDAR or cameras, Continental India’s R&D utilizes other advanced technologies like artificial intelligence and deep machine learning for enabling the systems for better prediction of unexpected scenarios in the world.
