DENSO showcases smarter mobility and smarter living at 2016 International Consumer Electronics Show

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Dec. 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — At the upcoming 2016 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, global auto supplier DENSO will use virtual and augmented reality platforms to illustrate how its technology could be used to make life smarter, safer and easier. DENSO will exhibit in the North Hall at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC); Booth #2131, Jan. 6-9.

Visitors to DENSO’s booth will be able to experience how vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2X) technology can create a safer and more convenient mobile world. These technologies help with accident avoidance, hazard warnings on highways or country roads, and collision avoidance for off road vehicles.

“It’s our goal at DENSO to use our technology to create a smarter, safer and more convenient world,” said Doug Patton, executive vice president of Engineering at DENSO International America, Inc. “But not only on the road—we’re exploring how our technology and components can be applied far beyond the automobile, like in health care or agriculture. We want our technology to lead to better quality of life for people around the world.”

DENSO’s exhibit will also feature a Wellness Monitoring System to measure biometrics, such as blood pressure and heart rate and a gaze detection system for the automobile that tracks eye movement and responds based on where you are looking in a vehicle cockpit.
