Innovation Workshop 2016

From technology that takes the stress out of parking and reversing to next generation systems that help drivers avoid collisions, Ford is developing driver assist technologies that are designed to improve journeys for everyone.

New technologies on show during a special behind-the-scenes look at the Ford European Research and Innovation Center in Aachen, Germany, include Cross Traffic Alert with Braking, Enhanced Active Park Assist, Evasive Steering Assist, Rear Wide View Camera and Wrong Way Alert.

Three innovations shortlisted from over 600 electric pedestrian assistant devices entered in Ford’s Global Mobility Challenge are also on show, including the Carr-E electric rideable platform, the TriCiti folding electric tricycle, and the eChair self-loading electric wheelchair.
