ADAS & Smart Cockpit

EMC, environmental reliability and material testing for cameras, radar, ultrasonic sensors and cockpit electronics, where functional safety depends on stable behaviour under interference.

ADAS and smart cockpit systems involve mmWave radar, cameras, lidar and high-compute domain controllers. Their EMC and environmental reliability requirements are markedly higher than those of ordinary in-vehicle electronics.

Typical products

  • mmWave radar
  • Automotive camera
  • Lidar
  • Ultrasonic sensor
  • Smart cockpit domain controller
  • Head-up display (HUD)
  • Camera-monitor mirror

Test scope by category

  • Stricter EMC conditions: radiated emission and immunity requirements are usually above those for conventional in-vehicle electronics.
  • Environmental: high and low temperature, temperature cycling, damp heat, vibration and shock, ingress protection.
  • Optical: camera imaging performance, distortion, dynamic range, lens weatherability.
  • Radar: detection performance and interference tolerance.
  • Safety-related: some products fall under ISO 26262 functional safety requirements.

Common failure modes

  • Radar false or missed detections in strong electromagnetic environments.
  • Bracket shift after vibration causing camera image misalignment.
  • Lens fogging after temperature cycling.
  • Domain controller crash under strong interference, taking down the whole cockpit.
  • Harness connections losing contact after vibration.

Selection guidance

  • Confirm the functional safety level (ASIL) — it directly sets how strict the validation must be.
  • Confirm the mounting location (bumper, roof, in-cabin); the environments differ widely.
  • For optical products, fix both the subjective evaluation criteria and the quantitative metrics for imaging performance.

Service notes

Our laboratory holds both CMA and CNAS accreditation, covers about 10,000 m2 and runs more than 500 sets of equipment. All testing is carried out in our own laboratories — nothing is subcontracted. Plant visits and on-site witnessed testing are welcome.

Scheduling follows the actual project pipeline. You can state your preferred lead time when you submit samples; we will confirm a feasible plan against current capacity and keep you updated at each milestone.

Test Matrix

Test items and typical conditions

ADAS sensors (mmWave radar, cameras, lidar) are usually mounted in exposed positions, making them the category with the highest environmental severity and ingress requirements. Key metrics must be re-measured after ageing and vibration — initial-state data alone means little.

Test dimension Typical items Common condition ranges Reference standard
EMC Radiated emission, radiated immunity mmWave radar needs attention at high frequency; bands per the standard and the product operating frequency CISPR 25
Environmental Temperature cycling, damp heat, ingress protection Exposed parts commonly IP67; some require high-pressure wash ratings GB/T 4208
Mechanical Random vibration, mechanical shock, stone impact Exposed mounting positions are severe ISO 16750
Contamination and chemicals Rain, salt mist, cleaning agent contact Per mounting location and car-wash conditions Customer technical agreement
Performance re-measurement Detection range, resolution, angular accuracy Re-measured after ageing and vibration, compared against initial values Customer technical agreement
Functional safety Failure modes, degradation strategy Verification approach per the customer functional safety requirements ISO 26262

Conditions and limits above are typical ranges for reference. The actual test levels, sample quantity and acceptance criteria follow the mutually confirmed test plan and standard version. Source: the clauses of each referenced standard.
