![Definitions: “Acceptance”: Action by which the Buyer accepts
the terms and conditions of sale in their entirety. It is done by
signing the purchase order which mentions “I hereby accept
Yole’s Terms and Conditions of Sale”.
“Buyer”: Any business user (i.e. any person acting in the course
of its business activities, for its business needs) entering into the
following general conditions to the exclusion of consumers acting
in their personal interests.
“Contracting Parties” or “Parties”: The Seller on the
one hand and the Buyer on the other hand.
“Intellectual Property Rights” (“IPR”) means any
rights held by the Seller in its Products, including any patents,
trademarks, registered models, designs, copyrights, inventions,
commercial secrets and know-how, technical information,
company or trading names and any other intellectual property
rights or similar in any part of the world, notwithstanding the fact
that they have been registered or not and including any pending
registration of one of the above mentioned rights.
“License”: For the reports and databases, 3 different licenses
are proposed. The buyer has to choose one license:
• One user license: one person at the company can use the report.
• Multi-user license: the report can be used by unlimited users
within the company. Subsidiaries and Joint-Ventures are not
included.
• Corporate license: purchased under “Annual Subscription”
program, the report can be used by unlimited users within the
company. Joint-Ventures are not included.
“Products”: Depending on the purchase order, reports or
database on MEMS, CSC, Optics/MOEMS, Nano, bio… to
be bought either on a unit basis or as an annual subscription.
(i.e. subscription for a period of 12 calendar months). The
annual subscription to a package (i.e. a global discount based
on the number of reports that the Buyer orders or accesses
via the service, a global search service on line on I-micronews
and a consulting approach), is defined in the order. Reports are
established in PowerPoint and delivered on a PDF format and the
database may include Excel files.
“Seller”: Based in Lyon (France headquarters), Yole
Développement is a market research and business development
consultancy company, facilitating market access for advanced
technology industrial projects. With more than 20 market
analysts, Yole works worldwide with the key industrial companies,
RD institutes and investors to help them understand the markets
and technology trends.

- 27. Since 2008, whena recession acted as a wakeup call to the whole industry, the automotive market has undergone obvious structural change. Capitalizing on technologies initially developed for smartphones, electronics have invaded, and imaging technology is now taking center stage. From less than one camera per car on average in 2015, there will be more than three cameras per car by 2021, which means 371 million automotive imaging devices. Cameras were initially mounted for ADAS purposes on high-end vehicles, with deep learning image analysis techniques promoting early adoption. The Israeli company Mobileye has been instrumental in bringing this technology to market, along with ON Semiconductor, which provided the CMOS image sensor. Copycat competition will probably pick up as the market now justifies initial investment in design and technology. It is now a well-established fact that vision-based autonomous emergency braking (AEB) is possible and saves life. Adoption of forward ADAS cameras will therefore accelerate. Growth of imaging for automotive is also being fueled by the park assist application, and 360° surround view camera volume is skyrocketing. While it’s becoming mandatory in the US to have a rearview camera, that uptake is dwarfed by 360° surround view cameras, which enable a “bird’s eye view” perspective. This trend is most beneficial to companies like Omnivision at sensor level and Panasonic and Valeo, which have become the main manufacturers of automotive cameras. Mirror replacement cameras are currently the big unknown and take-off will primarily depend on its appeal and car design regulation. Europe and Japan are at the forefront of this trend, which should become slightly significant by 2021. Solid state lidar is well talked about and will start to be found in high end cars by 2021. Cost reduction will be a key driver as the push for semi- autonomous driving will be felt more strongly by car manufacturers. The report will analyse the impact of lidar for automotive vision in detail. Night vision cameras using Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) technology were initially perceived as a status symbol. However, they’re increasingly appreciated for their ability to automatically detect pedestrians and wildlife. LWIR will therefore become integrated into ADAS systems in future. 3D cameras will be limited to in-cabin infotainment and driver monitoring. This technology will be key for luxury cars and therefore is of limited use today. If any significant semi-autonomous trend picks up, the technology will probably become mandatory, due to safety issues.

IMAGING TECHNOLOGIES FORAUTOMOTIVE 2016 (Yole Développement, October 2016) A MAZY TECHNOLOGICAL ROADMAP WILL BRING MANY OPPORTUNITIES Early hurdles such as wide dynamic range and large fields of view have been overcome. New issues such as LED flickering and low light issues are currently being considered seriously. SONY and ST Microelectronics’ recent automotive sensor release are examples of the push for technology excellence aimed at displacing ON Semiconductor leadership in ADAS image sensors. The current maturity of CIS technology allows for wide adoption of imaging technologies and is also accelerating research for technical efficiencies. Improvements will drive competition and major breakthroughs like the innovations seen in mobile devices could also happen in vehicles image sensors. The diversity of applications and the sheer numbers of devices, including conventional, 3D and IR cameras and lidars, allows specialization. Image processing can in turn exploit the devices’ capabilities. Multiple processing approaches such as NVidia GPUs, or Kalray’s many-core approaches are competing to enter the market. As automobiles undergo electronic metamorphoses, imaging technology has become a key enabling technology. Highly renowned Silicon Valley companies such as Google, Uber, and Tesla are investing in autonomous driving, bolstering consumer imagination. Cameras and video feedback is an obvious technology marker, which is becoming a must-have for car makers to differentiate themselves. Cameras for display purposes such as park assist are growing at 30% annually. However, they will suffer from quick commoditization, although lower average selling prices (ASPs) will be mitigated by increased resolution and increased volume. Forward looking ADAS cameras are growing 22% annually will get more complex, which will keep prices high. Today tri-focal cameras and stereo-mounting are gaining popularity. New technologies will raise the bar in terms of security and drive the adoption of early semi-autonomous features. Industrial providers such as camera module players and optical lens set players are capitalizing on this technology-driven environment. Asian leaders such as Sunny Optical and Sekonix are clearly benefiting from this trend. Cameras don’t really compete with radar or lidar, and all three could be integrated, depending on price and the level of autonomy targeted. As car price reaches certain levels, cameras are the first to be mounted due to their low ASP, then radars are added, then eventually lidars. Lidars are currently undergoing a technological and industrial revolution, thanks to companies like Delphy, Quanergy and SensL. By becoming solid-state they should be considered as true imaging devices. Their price point will fall below radars’, which are commonly used for ADAS, and consequently they will progressively be adopted by the top end of the automotive market. They will become central to semi-autonomous featured vehicles. 0 8 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016e 2017e 2018e 2019e 2020e 2021e Revenue($B) Dash camera Backup 360° suround Side mirror replacement Forward ADAS Night vision Lidar Driver monitoring Gesture recognition 2012-2020 Automotive camera revenue forecast (in $B) by applications IMAGING WILL TRANSFORM THE CAR INDUSTRY EN-ROUTE TO THE SELF-DRIVING PARADIGM SHIFT
