Start enquiryBosch has always taken a holistic approach on the road to automated driving – and in doing so combines its expertise and all of its experience from areas such as mechanics, electronics, hardware and software development, and telematics. The result: production-ready technologies and complete system solutions that can already enable highly automated driving (SAE Level 4) reliability and safely today. The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) defines a total of six levels of automated driving (Levels 0–5), with Level 0 not yet considered automation. Rather, this level refers to systems that warn or temporarily supports the driver as needed.
Driver Assistance means that an assistance system relieves and supports the driver in a specific scenario, either during accelerating and braking (longitudinal control) or when steering the vehicle (lateral control). At this level, the driver must constantly monitor the system and always be in a position to immediately intervene and make corrections. Examples of driver assistance systems from Bosch are the reversing assist, adaptive cruise control, and the lane centering assist.
Starting at Level 3, Conditional Driving Automation, the system takes over the driving task completely in specific use cases. For maximum safety and reliability, systems such as the steering, brakes, vehicle electrical system, and data processing are designed redundantly starting at this automation level. This means that if one system fails, another one is always able to take over and bring the vehicle to a stop safely in a critical situation. However, even at Level 3 the driver must still be capable at all times of resuming full control over the vehicle when requested to do so.
