From Road Noise to Roadmap: Accelerometer Sensors Enabling Vehicle Health, Comfort, and Safety

Session details:

The automotive industry is rapidly evolving toward smarter, safer, and more connected vehicles, and accelerometer-based sensors are at the center of this transformation. Originally deployed for road noise cancellation, today’s advanced accelerometers are unlocking entirely new value propositions — from vehicle health monitoring and predictive maintenance to touch sensing, safety-critical alerts, and enhanced occupant experiences. This session will showcase how Molex’s Vehicle Sensing Solutions team is redefining the role of accelerometers in EVs, SUVs, and trucks by combining robust hardware design with intelligent signal processing. Attendees will gain insights into real-world applications, lessons learned from global OEM collaborations, and a vision for how accelerometer sensors will shape the next wave of automotive innovation.
