Supplier Brose says it has developed mechatronic systems that will offer vehicle owners an entirely new access experience and pave the way to automated driving and car-sharing trends.

The family-owned supplier also hails its USP: it says only Brose offers 'perfectly harmonised and connected door and interior products from a single source'.

Brose says that even from a distance the car can recognise and welcome the driver with a projection on the ground. With a gesture, the vehicle user signals their desire to enter. The handle-free doors open automatically; a radar sensor prevents collisions, it says.

At the same time the windows that were tinted to protect against heat and prying eyes become transparent. The steering wheel disappears into the dashboard and the seat contour adjusts automatically. The second row of seats is also completely electrified for better access to the back and can slide automatically – without making any compromises in terms of safety: an interior sensor recognizes people, pets and children's seats in the vehicle and prevents injuries and/or damages.

Buckling up is also more comfortable as the belt is either easily accessible directly at the seat or is presented to the passenger electrically.

Brose says it has blended its mechanical, electric, electronic and sensor technology expertise to further develop its vehicle access system. Visitors to the 2019 International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt (12-22 September, stand D01/D02, Hall 4) can experience the latest features live at the Brose exhibition area under the motto "Enabling Future Mobility".
