Veoneer Inc., the former electronics business of Autoliv Inc., has won a contract to supply thermal cameras to an unnamed carmaker for use in future autonomous vehicles.

The application will be the first time a thermal camera is used in the autonomous driving sensor suite for a production vehicle, according to the Swedish company.

Based on Veoneer’s 4th-generation night vision system, the technology uses narrow and wide field-of-view thermal cameras teamed with advanced analytics to enhance object detection.

Low-volume production of the system is due to start in 2021.
