NORTHVILLE, Mich., Oct. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The
lighting and electronics expert HELLA is again named a 2020
Automotive News PACE Awards finalist. HELLA has been nominated for
its Brake System Sensor, a unique and new brake sensor with its
CIPOS® (Contactless Inductive Position Sensor)
technology that combines both the Pedal Travel Sensor and Motor
Position Sensor into one integrated inductive sensor. Also the
Rain/Light/Climate Sensor, a highly optimized, lightweight, small
Rain/Light Sensor package, featuring a common architecture for ease
of adoptability across vehicle makes and models as well as new
software and hardware improvements, is a finalist for the renowned
2020 Automotive News PACE Awards. The winners will be named on
March 23, 2020, at the Max M. and
Marjorie S. Fisher Music Center in Detroit.
"HELLA's consistent dedication to problem-solving makes us a
thought leader in the automotive industry. I am extremely proud of
the teams that made the Rain/Light/Climate Sensor and Brake System
Sensor possible. These are only two examples in our wide portfolio
of technologies that offer revolutionary fixes for common problems
drivers face every day," said Joerg
Weisgerber, member of the Electronics executive board and
responsible for the Electronics business of HELLA in North, Central
and South America. "We are
unbelievably honored and humbled to have not one, but two
technologies selected as PACE Awards finalists this year. A
recognition from such an institution in its 26th year
does not come easily and took true collaboration between our
technical teams and customers."
This is the third consecutive year that HELLA has been named a
finalist for this prestigious awards program that sets the standard
for industry excellence and innovation by recognizing game-changing
technologies. Last year, HELLA's SHAKE sensor (abbreviation for
Structural Health and Knock Emission) for Road Condition Detection,
a first-of-its-kind solution for providing cars with the sense of
hearing and touch in order to increase a vehicle's awareness of
road conditions, was named a 2019 PACE Awards Finalist. In 2014,
HELLA won a PACE Award for its LED Matrix Beam technology, which
combines a front camera, high-performance software and "intelligent
lighting" technology to recognize other vehicles as well as provide
"glare-free" illumination.
