safely with little or no human input.
ADAS (advanced driving assistance system)
Electronic control units: being the brain of the vehicle, the ADAS ECU has raw data processing capabilities gathered from multiple sources including cameras, short- and long-range radar, lidar, ultrasound sensors, and map data.
Long and short-range radars
Long Range Radars are supporting features as Emergency Brake Assist and Adaptive Cruise Control, meanwhile Short-Range-Radars are for Blind-Spot-Detection, Rear- Cross-Traffic-Alert and Lane-Change-Assist
Stereo cameras
In ADAS, applications use cameras for vision systems such as forward-, rear- and side-mounted cameras for pedestrian detection, traffic sign recognition, blind spots, and lane detect systems. Intelligent adaptive cruise control systems are fused from radar data and camera sensors, especially for complex scenarios such as city traffic, curvy non-straight roads, or higher speeds.
Electrification
- An important part of the embedded software development is represented by hybrid-electrical vehicles/ EV: The automotive electrification designs has created an emerging technology for new propulsion systems such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) or electrical vehicles (EV). High-quality embedded software services are a powerful pillar for HEV and EV progress.
Power Train

Power Switch
The switch will cut-off the battery power from the system circuit when maintaining hybrid cars, plug-in hybrid cars, electric cars, and hybrid construction machinery, etc.
High voltage platforms
The foundation for HEV/EV architectures is high voltage battery systems, such as +400V for EVs and 48V for HEVs.
BMS
BMS is an electronic system that manages a rechargeable battery to ensure it operates safely and efficiently.
DC-DC converters
DC-DC converters are high-frequency power conversion circuits that use high-frequency switching and inductors, transformers, and capacitors to smooth out switching noise into regulated DC voltages.
Invertors
The invertor takes the high-voltage, high-current DC electricity from the batteries and convert it to AC electricity for the motor.
The Belt Starter Generator (BSG)
The Belt Starter Generator (BSG) combined with the internal combustion engine (ICE) creates a Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV), and this hybrid power solution creates new opportunities for cost-efficient mass hybridization

// EMBEDDED SYSTEMS FOR SMART CITY PROJECTS
Innovative city projects cannot exist without the help of embedded software services specialists. A smart city is a community that employs information and communication technology to create responsive and efficient public services. The smart city uses data to ensure that the entire network of public utilities (transportation in general, public roads, electricity, waste management, green areas management and many other important services), is working ecologically and efficiently.
We have the expertise to deliver embedded systems and software for numerous smart city projects.
Embedded software services leading smart transportation
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) consists of a plethora of embedded software development technologies used to monitor, evaluate, and coordinate efficient, safe, and durable transportation.
A transportation system becomes smart when encompasses management, efficiency, ecology, and safety. It uses new and emerging technologies to make transport around a city or a region easier and safer for the population, more eco-friendly for the community and efficient for the public local government.
Smart co-drive project:The SmartCoDrive project aims to increase the road traffic safety, road traffic
mobility, quality of driving and will reduce fuel consumption and pollution by providing a universal
and portable solution for advanced driving assistance systems, based on a cooperative approach,
and using the advanced and increasing capabilities of the smart phone type devices.

mobility, quality of driving and will reduce fuel consumption and pollution by providing a universal
and portable solution for advanced driving assistance systems, based on a cooperative approach,
and using the advanced and increasing capabilities of the smart phone type devices.
Smart waste management solutions
Smart waste focuses on solving urban waste management challenges using smart devices (intelligent bins, garbage truck weighing mechanisms, etc.) equipped with waste level sensors, intelligent monitoring systems, and mobile applications.
Smart bins
The “smart bin” transfers information on the level of the waste and ensure that the collection process is put in motion only when it is at total capacity, helping to reduce traffic congestion with cleaner air and safer streets.
From the community perspective, the “smart bins” – besides their financial and ecological advantages – help raise public awareness on street sanitation and recycling. Thus, embedded software development contributes not only to a more functional world, but also to a more environment friendly one.
Smart public lighting
Every light source in a city is controlled and monitored when a smart public lighting system is implemented with the help of custom-made solutions created by embedded software development teams. Smart controllers are deployed to every source of light, for dynamic ON/OFF/dimming control depending on the time of the day or traffic and for awareness.
The public administration will gain reduced operational costs, and the community will have safer streets, lower energy costs and a more sustainable way of life.
The next step is to transform the public light poles or other installations into an IoT-ready installation platform, with additional sensors for other smart applications, such as air monitoring systems and many others.
AROBS was a development partner for a project in the home automation area, but one of the first
users of this application was a city hall in Finland that used the system to control the public lighting in
the town. The system consisted in a desktop and mobile application that let the user control different
devices. These devices were simple temperature, pressure or wind monitoring devices or even more
complex ones that established a calendar or a timeframe for executing specific actions, some
programmable points by the end user. The system could also notify the user when an alarm (fire, water
leak, and so on) was triggered or if the devices were not working properly.

Smart power grids and smart utility meters
A smart power grid plays an important role in helping the sustainability of smart city projects. They will transform the city into a more efficient and eco-conscient consumer, and it will ensure faster restoration of power services after disruptions. For the administration, the benefits are considerable: reduced management and operational costs, improved security measures, and increased integration of renewable energy sources.
The smart utility meters systems are unified platforms that incorporate smart electricity, water and gas meters, smart street lighting, smart waste management and smart public parking among other each other.
The administration will be able to integrate data for different systems and to reduce the financial burden of the public expenses altogether with the optimization of the public services delivery through embedded software services.
Smart air quality monitors
Different dangerous chemicals are always present in any environment, but more frequently in cities. Implementing an Air Quality Monitoring system is the first step to improving air quality in cities worldwide.
The measurement of the air quality is valuable per se. Still, the added value lies in the multiple-use cases that intelligent city administration will profit from on behalf of the community.
The first and most important is solving certain pollution hot spots by using information gathered by the air quality sensors and systems to rethink the traffic to ensure the decongestion of the problematic areas. Administrations will have data for educating the community to change their perspective on traffic and pollution. Moreover, the cities in Europe will need smart air quality systems for compliance to the European Union Air Quality Standards, which are under revision at the beginning of 2022, and with World Health Organization guidelines, published in September 2021.
